After painting the twin cities with banners, posters, stickers and portraits of candidates, party workers and supporters have initiated the door to door campaign as the general elections draw near.
Scores of activists and supporters belonging to the Pakistan Muslim League-(Nawaz) (PML-N), the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI), and Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) go riding motorcycles and vehicles through streets. They carry flags of their political parties and chant political slogans to muster up support for their respective parties.
Sources said the PTI had tasked its volunteers to visit at least 20 houses in their locality and convince the public to vote the PTI. The JI is holding corner meetings to garnish support in the upcoming elections. The JI’s students’ wing is also very active in conducting the campaign.
Sources also said political parties have hired workers on daily wages to put up posters, banners and stickers in various parts of the twin cities.
