Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) – which though became the first political party which unveiled its manifesto for general elections 2018 on June 28 – won’t be seen fighting for 56 National Assembly Seats in Country’s biggest political battle on July 25.
Even the PPP remains contented not to inflict political damage to the Chief of Pakistan Muslim League-Zia (PML-Z) Ijaz-ul-Haq whose father General (retd) Zia-ul-Haq caused the execution of the Founder of PPP Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto in April 1979.
Ijaz-ul-Haq will strive to gain a National Assembly Seat from NA-169 Bahawalnagar-IV; however, the PPP has already knocked itself out from the Constituency by placing no candidate.
Likewise, the President Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Shahbaz Sharif (NA-192 Dera Ghazi Khan-IV), Ahsan Iqbal (NA-78 Narowal-II), the PML-N leaders Rana Tanveer Hussain (NA-120 Sheikhupura-II), Mian Javed Latif (NA-121 Sheikhupura-III), Rana Muhammad Afzal (NA-110 Faisalabad-X), and Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid’s (PML-Q) Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi (NA-65 Chakwal-II) will not have to endeavor at all to avert any threat at least from the PPP in their respective Constituencies.
