Kulsoom, Maryam top list of PML-N nominees for NA-120

Though ousted prime minister Nawaz Sharif is yet to make a final decision about the PML-N candidate for NA-120, Lahore-III, the party officials say former first lady Begum Kulsoom Nawaz or her daughter Maryam Nawaz are also being considered for the ticket.
In the internal party discussions so far names of Begum Kulsoom and Ms Maryam have emerged as first and second priority, respectively, as PML-N candidates for the seat (that) fell vacant after disqualification of the prime minister, a party official told Dawn here on Monday.
He, however, quoted Mr Sharif as telling the consultative meeting that he would make a final decision on the issue after reaching Lahore as the party had already given him a free hand for picking a candidate for NA-120. The former prime minister had earlier wished that his younger brother Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif should succeed him as prime minister (after contesting from NA-120 to become a National Assembly member). - Posted on : 08-August-2017

PML-N fails to decide on NA-120 contender

Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif, earlier proposed as a successor to his brother, Nawaz, was expected to contest the NA-120 by-poll in order to acquire membership of the National Assembly, and then go on to become prime minister.

However, recent reports suggest the party is reevaluating its strategy amid fears that the PML-N's focus will be diverted from the crucial province of Punjab ─ the home of the party's electoral base ─ if Shahbaz leaves the post of chief minister.

The Punjab government has admitted to the debate over the chief minister's elevation. Some party leaders think Punjab is very important for the PML-N and Shahbaz Sharif should continue serving here, while others want to see him as premier, the Punjab government's spokesperson Malik Ahmad told Dawn. - Posted on : 04-August-2017

NA-120 a stronghold of PML-N

Nation Assembly constituency NA-120 has always been a stronghold of the PML-N, because of which Shehbaz Sharif is less likely to face stiff resistance in upcoming by-poll for this seat.

The seat fell vacant because of the disqualification of Nawaz Sharif following Friday's Supreme Court verdict in Panama case.

A PML-N meeting decided in Islamabad on Saturday to get Shahbaz Sharif elected as successor to Nawaz Sharif. To qualify for the office, Punjab chief minister will have to get elected as a member of the National Assembly. The schedule for the election will be announced by the Election Commission of Pakistan.

According to 2013 general election results, Nawaz Sharif got 91,666 votes from the constituency. His rival candidate, Doctor Yasmin Rashid of the PTI, secured 52,321 votes, highest ever in the constituency against PML-N. However, around two dozen candidates of different parties including Pakistan People‘s Party, JUI-F and Jamaat-e-Islami and independents had lost their security deposits against the former prime minister. The candidates whose security was forfeited were: Zubair Kardar, PPP-P, 2,604 votes; Maulana Hafiz Sana Ullah, JUI-F, 1,152; Hafiz Sulman Butt, JI 952; Robinson Advocate, Independent, 813; Marghub Hussain Naqvi, Independent, 774; Allama Mujahid Abdul Rasool Khan, PST 631; Farrukh Habib, Independent, 56; Syed Izzat Yousaf, Independent, 41; Malik Ibrar Aslam Awan, Independent, 36; Doctor Asif Rafique, Independent, 35; Muhammad Pervaiz Jutt, Independent, 35; Gohar Ali Khan, PML-C 33; Muhammad Rehman Khokhar alias Raz Rehman, Independent, 31; Syed Nadeem Anjum, Independent, 27; Muhammad Asghar, Independent, 27; Hakim Jamil Asghar Khizri, MDM ,22; Rehana Ahmad, Independent, 20; Syed Shamshad Hussain, Independent 17; Farooq Azad, Independent, 16; Saria Goga, APML, 12; Nawab Doctor Ambar Shahzada , AJSP, 12; Haji Muhammad Sharif, Independent, 10 and Zahid Javeid Butt Advocate, Independent, 8 votes. - Posted on : 02-August-2017
