LAHORE – PTI-backed candidates are in the lead in Pakistan’s election, ahead of PML-N and PP who are now chalking out strategy for coalition government.

Qadir, a former PML-N leader, announced joining the former ruling party after meeting Maryam Nawaz in provincial capital.
He expressed confidence in leadership of Nawaz Sharif and Maryam Nawaz. He stated that he was joining the PML-N after consulting with the people and friends of the constituency.
It should be noted that Waseem Qadir defeated PML-N candidate Sheikh Rohail Asghar in NA-121 in Lahore.
