NA-59 Attock-III
(a) Hassan Abdal Tehsil;
(b) Fateh Jang Tehsil;
(c) Ghourghashti Town Committee
(d) Ghourgashti Qanungo Halqa of Attock District



he third and new seat of the District Attock is NA 59, which comprises the area of Hassan Abdal and Fateh-e-Jang. The Khatar Biradari is the leading Biradari of this area and the district nazim of Attock, Major ® Tahir Sadiq, also belongs to this area and he has a strong hold in this own area. It is his daughter Eman Wasim who is contesting the elections on the ticket of PML (QA) with the help of her father.

WHERE DOES THE EMAN WASEEM LIVES, I HAVE HEARED SHE LIVES ABROAD.IF SO THEN WHY IS SHE PARTICIPATING IN ELECTION?

Well the situation in all attock is very strange as compared to the other places.
The important point being is that PML(Q) has got 3 contestants in three constituencIEs , They all are from Gujrat ave gt Ch Pervaiz elahi contesting from ATTOCK, ANd eman Waseem and Waseem Gulzar , they are all Interrelated ,

The situation now is that In Attock 2 is that PmlQ didn't gve the ticket to Sardar Mumtaz Which has spent nearly rs 400 million(yes thats true) from the date he has entered into the politics, Roughly 8 years ago when he returned from States.
So sardar mumtaz has joined PML(N) now and he will be contetsing in the Provincial Assembly , and this is a big set back to PMl(Q)

Another candidate from Attock 1 , Malik amin aslam has resigned from PML(Q) and will be contesting the election independentaly.
The reason being is that Eman Waseem is daughter of The Distt Nazim of attock Maj (r) Tahir sadiq and he is brother in law to chaudhry's, was contesting the election independentaly , so in taht case there was no point for Malik amin aslam to contest for the election, so he resigned and now Eman waseem will be contesting at pml(q) and the facts and figures don't show that pml(Q) will get any seat from the three constituencies of ATTock

I will keep you posted of any latest which i get
Thanks

Asif Ali Malik of PML-N, Sardar Salim Haider of PPP and Wasim Gulzar of PML-Q are up against each other for this seat. Eman Wasim secured the seat in the 2002 elections defeating her rivals Sardar Shaukat Hayat Khan of PPPP and Lt Col (r) Muhammad Pervez Khan of PML-N. This constituency comprises Hassanabdal and Fateh Jang tehsils and some parts of Sanjwal Cant and Burhan.

Former PM Shaukat Aziz secured this seat in 2002 by-polls with an overwhelming majority after Eman Wasim vacated it. Earlier, there were speculations that former premier will once again the contest this constituency but he has opted out of this election race. This time, the PML-Q has awarded, party ticket to Wasim Gulzar, husband of Eman Wasim.

Asif Malik is the PML(N)n candidate this time while PPP has fielded Sardar Salim Hyder. Ch. Waseem Gulzar, husband of Eman Waseem is the PML(Q) candidate.

Asif Ali Malik is the ex-mpa of 1997 but is not considered a particularly strong candidate. Q league won by 24,000 votes from here last time. Although there is negative sentiment against q league this time around, still it has teh whole government machinery behind it. PPP candidate is unlikely to poll more votes than PPP polled from here last time.

If PML(N) had put forard a stronger candidate then this seat would have come into play, but so far PML(Q) sems poised to win from here though with much reduced margin.

RESULT: PML(Q) victory.
