The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has issued victory notifications for a dozen members of the National Assembly including PML-N supreme leader Nawaz Sharif and three other members of his family.
As per the ECP’s notification the former prime minister has been declared a returned candidate from NA-130 (Lahore), his younger brother Shehbaz Sharif from NA-123 (Lahore), daughter Maryam Nawaz from NA-119 (Lahore) and nephew Hamza Shehbaz Sharif from NA-118 (Lahore).
The piecemeal issuance of notifications for publication in the official gazette in deviation from the tradition made many wonder if those declared successful have submitted details of the election expenses with the commission.
The commission has also declared PML-N leader Attaullah Tarar a winner from NA-127 (Lahore) and Muhammad Awn Chaudhry of IPP from NA-128 (Lahore).
ECP has also notified the victory of PML-N provincial president from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP), Ameer Muqam, from NA-11 (Shangla).
