DERA ISMAIL KHAN: PPP leader Faisal Karim Kundi withdrew his nomination papers in favour of a Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) candidate on NA-37 Dera Ismail Khan.
Mr. Kundi, a PPP ticket holder, had submitted his papers to contest on a National Assembly seat (NA-37) in DI Khan, but later decided to step aside from the electoral contest, withdrawing his candidature.
The PPP leader said he withdrew from election race for the benefit of PTI candidate Habibullah Kundi to give a tough contest to Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) candidate.
JUI-F chief Maulana Fazl Ur Rehman’s son Maulana Asad Mehmood is contesting election from NA-37.
A day earlier, the JUI-F announced its candidates for 20 National Assembly seats and 60 provincial assembly seats in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.
