Elahi's wife allegedly stopped from submitting nomination papers in Gujrat

Former Punjab chief minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf President, Parvez Elahi’s wife, Qaisara Elahi, was allegedly topped on Friday from submitting the nomination papers ahead of the general elections.

Elahi’s wife had reached the gate to submit the nomination papers from NA-64, where she was stopped.

Moonis Elahi shared an alleged locked office of RO Gujrat from his X account.

Earlier, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has extended the deadline for filing nomination papers by two days.

The ECP said in a statement on Friday that political parties may submit a priority list for reserved seats by the same date, and candidates may now submit nomination papers until December 24.

The electoral body said that the candidature papers will be scrutinized from December 25 to December 30.

The ECP had previously said that the nomination papers would be accepted between December 20 and December 22.

The political parties, Balochistan Awami Party (BAP), PML-N, Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P), and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl (JUI-F), then requested an extension from the Election Commission to file their nomination papers.
