Election campaign is in full swing at the Model Town Society (MTS), as two groups are face-to-face with each other for elections on February 26, which are expected to be unpredictable, Pakistan Today has learnt. Banners have been placed at prominent areas of the society, including the main Model Town Roundabout, as candidates geared up for the big day. Two main groups were registered for election, including the Model Town Unity Group and Model Town Group. From the Model Town Unity Group, Rana Ahmed Mateen was running for president while Major (r) Mushtaq Dhillon was running for vice-president. From the Model Town Group, Saifur Rehman was running for president and Daud Bari for vice-president. Around 45 candidates would compete for 22 seats. Around 20 candidates would be elected for managerial seats from 10 blocks with two from each block while the management would be headed by the elected president and vice-president. All candidates had submitted their nomination papers for scrutiny, which was still underway. According to sources, Bari looked to be in hot waters, as there was a chance of him being disqualified. Sources said that during scrutiny, it was revealed that Bari had supplied furniture to the MTS and according to the society’s by-laws, a beneficiary of the society could not run for election. Source said that Bari, who had no covering candidate, claimed that the furniture company was owned by his son. Sources also revealed that the election was actually a fight between former Lahore nazim Mian Aamir Mehmood’s party with the rest of Model Town. The Model Town Group, which was affiliated with Aamir, had rearranged its candidates and was ready for the election with the former nazim’s support, who had great influence in the society.
