Syed Ghazanfar Hussain Musavi, the leader of the Pakistan Muslim League - Functional (PML-F) in Sukkur district and the coordinator of the Joint Democratic Alliance (JDA), filed his nomination forms for the Provincial Assembly seat PS 23 on Friday. He was accompanied by a large number of PML-F officials and workers, who expressed their support and confidence in his candidacy.
He appealed to the voters to support him and the JDA in the upcoming election, and to reject the corrupt and incompetent rulers who had failed to deliver on their promises. He said that the PML-F and the JDA would bring a positive change in the province, and would restore the rights and dignity of the people.
The PML-F is a nationalist and pro-Hurs clan political party, which is one of the factions of the Pakistan Muslim League. The party is led by Pir Pagara Syed Sibghatullah Shah Rashdi III, who is the spiritual leader of the Hurs, a Sufi order that fought against the British colonial rule. The party has a strong base in the rural areas of Sindh, especially in the districts of Khairpur, Sanghar, Nawabshah and Sukkur.
The PS 23 constituency covers the Rohri and Salehpat talukas of Sukkur district. It is considered to be a stronghold of the PPP, which has won the seat in the last three elections. The current MPA from the constituency is Syed Nasir Hussain Shah, who is also the provincial minister for works and services. He is expected to face a tough competition from Sayed Ghazafar Hussain Shah Musavi and other candidates in the next election.
The election for the Provincial Assembly of Sindh is scheduled to be held on March 10, 2024, along with the National Assembly and other provincial assemblies. The election commission has announced that the nomination papers of the candidates will be scrutinized from December 25 to December 29, and the final list of candidates will be published on January 8, 2024
