MUZAFFARGARH: Former MNA Jamshed Dasti’s wife filed his nomination papers for NA-175 and NA-176 after the Multan bench of the Lahore High Court ordered the Election Commission and police not to harass Nazia Dasti.

Nazia submitted her nominations papers as well.

Wanted in May 9 cases, Dasti has been in hiding since then.

For NA-180, Malik Ghulam Raza Rabbani Khar and former foreign minister of Pakistan Hina Rabbani Khar also submitted their nominations papers.
