Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has decided to nominate prominent leader Asad Umar to contest on Javed Hashmi’s vacant seat from the NA-48 constituency in Islamabad, as Hashmi decided to keep his National Assembly (NA) seat from Multan.
According to sources, PTI Chairman Imran Khan took the decision, after consulting various party leaders, to name Asad Umar on NA-48.
PTI President Javed Hashmi secured 32,533 votes against 13,861 received by Anjum Aqeel Khan of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
Asad Umar joined the Imran Khan-led PTI after resigning as chief executive officer (CEO) from Engro Corporation. He has also received Sitara-i-Imtiaz from the government of Pakistan for his achievements in the business world.

  1. Excellent choice. People like Asad Umar will strengthen the National Assembly and improve the quality of dialogue between parties.

  2. I congratulate Imran Khan and the PTI leadership for nominating Asad Umer to contest on Javed Hashmi's vacant seat from Islamabad. Asad Umer is highly respected by the business circle of Pakistan and has a vast successful practical experience in the industrial development of Pakistan. Indeed he will add tremendous value to PTI representation in the National Assembly and I hope on the day of by-election people will come out in vast majority and will ensure that they vote for the man who will make a difference in the parliament. Good luck Asad. Sahibzada Jahangir, Chairman, imran Khan Secretariat for Europe.

  3. @ Bilal : when would u start respecting our national heroes ?
    Please Pakistan ko itna badnaam na karo .

  4. The workers of PTI as well as the Voters of Islamabad will not accept the imported Candidate. It would be for the 2nd time that PTI by ignoring the local Party workers would be introducing an imported stuff after Makhdoom Hashmi hailing from Multan. He would loose the seat with double margin. …Aamir Saleem
