Former governor Malik Ghulam Mustafa Khar has withdrawn in favour of the PML-N candidate for Muzaffargarh’s NA-180, Malik Abdul Khaliq Khar (his nephew).

Khar was earlier a candidate for the NA seat, and his nomination papers had been approved. However, on Saturday, he withdrew in favour of PML-N’s Malik Abdul Khaliq Khar.

Now, Khaliq Khar is the main contender against Malik Ghulam Raza Rabbani Khar, who is a PPP candidate for NA-180. Both candidates are stepbrothers, sons of the late ex-MNA Malik Ghulam Noor Rabbani Khar.
