Many people
are asking the question that why the speaker choose 11 out of 131 resignations
of PTI MNAs to accept. The main reason seems behind this decision is the fact
that PTI won these constituencies with narrow margins in 2018 general elections
except NA-24 and NA-31.
It is a
clever move by the ruling coalition as it sees a fair chance of winning these
constituencies in by polls. The ruling coalition might not be able to win all
the 11 constituencies in the by polls but it has the chance on most seats.
These constituencies have been picked very carefully after examining the past
results of these constituencies.
Major coalition partners will get their share in the by polls. ANP leader Asfandyar Wali or his son Aimal Wali will get a chance to take NA-24 Charsada. PPP will get chance on two Karachi seats of NA-237 and NA-246. JUI-F will get chance on NA-22 Mardan. PML-N will get chance on NA-118 Nankana Sahib and NA-108 Faisalabad.

votes while JUI-F candidate Maulana Muhammad Qasim bagged 56,318 votes. PML-N

27,104 votes. PPP got 13, 477 votes. So in total, ruling coalition candidates

candidate in this constituency.

2018. Fakhar Zaman got 16,911 votes while Jamil Khan of JUI-F got 15,761 votes.
