ECP announces schedule for by-polls in NA-122, NA-154

Earlier this month, the election tribunals declared the 2013 election results of NA-122 and NA-154 null and void and ordered the ECP to hold fresh polls in both the constituencies.

The ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), whose two candidates former Speaker National Assembly Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and Muhammad Siddique Khan Baloch were de-seated after the tribunals verdicts, announced that they would not take stay orders against tribunals’ verdicts.

On Saturday, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan announced that Jehangir Khan Tareen and Aleem Khan would be the party’s candidates for the upcoming by-polls in NA-122 and NA-154.
