KARACHI: Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and Muttahid Quami Movement (MQM) have secured all the seats which they were contesting in Senate’s elections from Sindh assembly.
The PPP has won five seats while MQM succeeded to win two seats from Sindh.
Rehman Malik, Salim Mandiwala, Latif Ansari, Islam Uddin Shiekh and Gian Chand were successful candidates of the PPP.
While the MQM winning candidates were Khusbakht Shujaat and Sardar Ateeq.
It is pertinent to mention here that four candidates — two each belonging to the PPP and the MQM had elected unopposed on Saturday after the covering candidates on the reserved seats withdrew their nomination papers under a seat-adjustment agreement between the two parties.
PPP’s Sassui Palijo and the MQM’s Nighat Mirza Hina were elected unopposed on the two seats reserved for women, while the PPP’s Farooq H. Naek and the MQM’s Barrister Mohammad Ali Saif were elected unopposed on the seats reserved for technocrats.
