Nawaz-Led PML-N Board Meets To Finalize Gilgit-Baltistan Tickets

The move signals a top-down push to lock in a slate before the June 7 election.

Overview

  • PML-N’s 23-member parliamentary board, which met Monday, holds full authority to award tickets across 24 constituencies.
  • The panel is chaired by Nawaz Sharif, with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and other senior leaders in attendance, according to party sources.
  • Roughly 150 applications are under review for party nominations, with suitability and local standing under scrutiny.
  • Party sources said the agenda also includes talks on potential alliances and possible new entrants to strengthen the campaign.
  • The G-B Election Commission set June 7 as polling day in an April 12 notice after winter weather forced earlier delays, while reports differed on the meeting venue between Murree and Punjab House in Islamabad.
