LAHORE: Keeping in view the tough contest in the next general election, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has prepared a preliminary list of its candidates for the 13 national and 26 provincial assembly constituencies.
According to details available to Daily Times through party sources, PTI Chairman Imran Khan will be a candidate of the National Assembly from NA-122 while PTI President Javaid Hashmi’s candidature from NA-118 is finalised for the time being, but if shifted to another constituency, Engineer Yasir Gillani would replace him. Another option under consideration is fielding Yasir Gillani for provincial assembly if Hashmi would contest from this constituency. Likewise, from NA-119, PTI is likely to field PML-Q disgruntled leader Farooq Amjad Mir or Admiral (r) Javaid Iqbal.
For NA-120 there is a tie between the Chaudhry Asghar Gujar, a former PPP leader, and Mian Javaid Ali, a former PML-Q stalwart. For NA-123, the names of an old PTI guard Mian Hamid Mairaj and Atif Chaudhry are on the front line. For NA-124, there is a tie between Jamshaid Iqbal Cheema and Allama Iqbal’s grandson, Walid Iqbal. For NA-125, PTI Punjab President Ahsan Rashid, Hamid Ali Khan and Shahid Zulfiqar are prospective candidates. From NA-126, PTI Lahore President Mahmood Rasheed, Asad Umar and Shahid Siddique have been finalised as prospective candidates for the general election.
Former PML-Q minister Abdul Aleem Khan is on top of the list of candidates for NA-127, while Farooq Amjad Mir is supposed to be the covering candidate. From NA-128, Malik Karamat Khokhar and Zaheer Abbass Khokhar are main candidates, while from NA-129 Nawaz Awan and Mansha Sindhu are the main contenders. In NA-130, the name of Munaza Hussain has been short-listed.
For the provincial assembly seats, the names of candidates are: PP-137 Engineer Yasir Gillani and Malik Misbah, from PP-138 Malik Asif Javaid, Junaid Razaq and Farooq Khan. From PP-139 Chaudhry Asghar Gujjar’s name is under consideration, however, at the same time another former PPP die-hard Mazhar Iqbal Bhalli Butt is in the race. From PP-140, Nazir Chohan, Atifuddin, Zia Abdul Rahim are prospective candidates. From PP-141, the strong candidature of Nawaz Nutt and from PP-142 Abrarul Haq, Malik Waqar, Malik Zaman Nasib and Sadia Saif are prospective candidates.
For PP-143, Shaukat Shah, Irshad Sethi and Rana Zubair are main contenders, while from PP-144 Mian Hamid Mairaj and Faiz Alam advocate are top candidates under consideration. From PP-145, Muhammad Ramzan, Muhammad Iftikhar, Tariq Hameed and Mian Khalid are being considered suitable candidates, whereas from PP-146, the names of Adnan Nawaz, Khawaja Zeeshan and Tariq Sadiq have surfaced. As far as PP-147 is concerned, Aleem Khan and Shadab Jafery are candidates, while Ijaz Chaudhey and Mian Akram Usman are candidates from PP-148. From PP-149, Mian Haris Salim, Sohail Asif and Aqeel Siddique are main contenders and from PP-150 Sheikh Imtiaz and Ishtiaq Dogar are major candidates.
In PP-151, Mahmood Rashed and Dr Shahid Siddique are considered candidates, while PP-152, PTI Lahore Dr Murad Rass, Farukh Masood and Amin Zaki are among the top candidates. From PP-153, there is a tie between former PTI Lahore president Shabbir Sial and Karim Khawar; and in PP-154, Dr Yasmin Rashid, Shafiq Joia and Naeemul Haq are candidates. The PP-155 will have PTI old guard Umar Cheema, Asif Bashir and Neelam Ashraf as candidates; while PP-156 will have Shoaib Siddique and Waqar Khan as candidates. For PP-157, Javaid Awan, Hamid Sarwar and Sarfaraz Muna are among contenders, while in PP-158 Major (r) Khalid Zulfiqar is contesting with Tahir Majid Mayo and Dr Sami for the ticket. For PP-159, Ali Imtaiz Warraich, Asghar Awan, Mian Asim and Sardar Arif Rashid are struggling for the party ticket. However, in PP-160, a tough contest between Zaheer Abbass Khokhar, Sarfaraz Khokhar and Tahir Bara is going on for the ticket. But in PP-161 there is no contender against Abdur Rashid Bhatti and Khalid Gujjar is just covering him as candidate.
