The Daily Guardian
|February 08, 2024
With former Prime Minister Imran Khan in jail, Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) is tipped to emerge as the single largest party in the elections.
-
Pakistanis will vote on Thursday to elect a new government to rule the cash-strapped country amid a spree of violence including deadly blasts on the eve of elections in which the front-runner former prime minister Nawaz Sharif is believed to have the backing of the powerful military.
With former Prime Minister Imran Khan in jail, Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim LeagueNawaz (PML-N) is tipped to emerge as the single largest party in the elections.
Khan’s Pakistan Tehreeke-Insaf (PTI) candidates are contesting the polls independently after the Supreme Court upheld the decision of the election commission to deprive his party of its iconic election symbol cricket ‘bat’.
Sharif, 74, will be eying the premiership for a record fourth time in Thursday’s election.
The contest also involves the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) of Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, who has been declared as the party’s prime minister face.
