MUZAFFARGARH: Awami Raj Party’s Chairman and member National Assembly Jamshed Dasti in a latest charm offensive mingled with voters and danced with them like there is no tomorrow.
Dasti who usually bags votes from the working class danced a traditional set on the beat of drums with the voters on their request.
Prior to this, Dasti during his political career, has always tried to come up with unique ways to attract his voters.
Dasti is contesting from two National Assembly constituencies NA-182 and NA-183 and a provincial assembly seat in southern Punjab district of Muzaffargarh.
Previously the MNA was arrested and jailed on June 09 2017 for forcibly opening the sluice gate at a canal to release irrigation water to Dinga minor.
On June 23 an anti-terrorism court granted him bail. Before he could be released from prison he was arrested in yet another case.
He was initially arrested in a case registered by the Karamdad Qureshi police under sections 353, 430, 148, 149 and 186 of the Pakistan Penal Code on an application submitted by the Kot Addu irrigation sub-division officer.
It was alleged in the complaint that the MNA had forcibly released water into the Dinga canal and when irrigation officials informed him that it was closed following court orders he threatened them with dire consequences.
