With the upcoming Senate elections less than two weeks away, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) Wednesday rejected the nomination papers of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Murad Saeed and Azam Swati who were party’s nominees from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa on general and technocrat seats, respectively.
The electoral body also dealt a blow to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-Parliamentarians (PTI-P) leader Mahmood Khan’s bid to join the upper house as his rejection papers were also rejected for the polls slated for April 2.
Meanwhile, the ECP has also issued the final list of 30 candidates whose nomination papers have been approved including 16 for general seats, eight for technocrat and six for women’s seats.
