PM nominates Sadiq Sanjrani as a candidate for chairman Senate

Monitoring Desk :

Prime Minister Imran Khan on Thursday announced the nomination of Sadiq Sanjrani as the ruling coalition candidate for the office of chairman Senate. The Federal Information Minister, Shibli Faraz took to Twitter and announced the nomination of Sanjrani as the candidate for the chairman of the upper house.

Earlier, sources within the ruling coalition revealed many party members did not want to see Sanjrani again as Senate chairman and wanted the party leadership to nominate a genuine party activist or member for the coveted slot. Political experts have cautioned that if the PTI insisted on Sanjrani’s nomination, it could face a similar situation which it has faced after the election of Syed Yousuf Raza Gilani.

On the other hand, they believed if the PTI did not back Sanjrani, then this act would annoy the Balochistan Awami Party, which is now the fourth largest party in the Senate and second-largest party after the PTI in the ruling alliance.
