Jailed PTI activist Sanam Javed announces to contest elections against Maryam Nawaz
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) jailed activist Sanam Javed on Tuesday announced to contest elections against Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senior Vice President Maryam Nawaz.
Javed who is currently in jail, intends to contest for 2024 general elections against Maryam Nawaz from Lahore’s provincial seat.
Sanam Javed’s decision was shared by her father with the media on Tuesday.
PTI activist will file nomination papers from PP-150 Lahore constituency, says her father.
However, it’s not clear yet from which constituency Maryam Nawaz will be filling her papers.
PTI activist’s father said that Sanam will participate in the polls on the PTI’s ticket and added that Sanam will also submit nomination papers for the women’s reserved seat.
“We are gathering documents to file her [Sanam Javaid’s] nomination papers,” he added.
According to the election schedule, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) will start receiving nomination papers from prospective candidates tomorrow (December 20).
The process is slated to begin on Dec 19 after the oathtaking of district returning officers (DROs) and returning officers (ROs) by the electoral body as per the Elections Act 2017.
It is pertinent to mention here that Sanam is among dozens of PTI workers and leaders who are in custody in connection with the May 9 riots that broke out following the arrest of then-party chairman Imran Khan in a graft case.
