LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf Punjab information secretary Shaukat Basra has urged the Lahorites to come out of their homes yet again on the call of party founder chairman Imran Khan and vote for party candidates in the by-election scheduled for April 21.

He said PTI-SIC candidates Muhammad Khan Madni (PP-147), Hafiz Zeeshan (PP-149), Moonis Elahi (PP-158), Chaudhry Yousaf Meo (PP-164) and Mian Shahzad Farooq (NA-119) were contesting the by-election from Lahore constituencies.

Mr Basra said the party candidates were reaching out to the masses in their door-to-door campaigns and were hopeful that the masses would yet again vote for the PTI as they did in general elections on Feb 8.
