Pakistan Muslim League-N on Thursday discussed the issue of new constituencies and the party’s affected candidates along with likely seat adjustments.
The party’s session mulled to compensate the candidates deprived of party tickets with Senate seats or in by-elections.
“A large part of Sardar Ayaz Sadiq’s constituency has been added in the constituency of Shaikh Rohail Asghar in fresh delimitations and both of them trying to bag the party ticket for NA-121,” the party sources said. The Senate elections will take place in March immediately after general election in February.
“Ayaz Sadiq could be offered to the constitutional seat of Senate Chairman if he becomes senator,” sources claimed.
Former MNA Malik Riaz could be affected in NA-117 after Aleem Khan has submitted nomination papers from NA-117. Malik has contacted to the people deemed closer to the PML-N leadership, sources said.
