ISLAMABAD: Aseefa Bhutto Zardari, the younger daughter of President Asif Ali Zardari and possibly the next ‘first lady’ of Pakistan, is likely to contest the by-election from Nawabshah’s NA-207, a constituency that is now vacant after her father’s election as president.
Though the official PPP handle on X (formerly Twitter) tagged Aseefa Bhutto Zardari in a photo of her accompanying her father to the oath-taking ceremony and wrote “First Lady with the President”, the final decision regarding this has to be taken by President Asif Ali Zardari.
Sources have hinted that in principle the decision has been taken but the final announcement may be made within the next few days. According to sources, the PPP has also decided that Aseefa Bhutto Zardari will contest the by-elections from NA-207. Per sources, the official announcement regarding this will be made within a few days once the Elections Commission of Pakistan announces the schedule for the by-elections.
Earlier it was proposed that Aseefa Bhutto could contest from the seat vacated by Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto Zardari — NA-196 Shahdadkot,
which he vacated after retaining NA-194 Larkana — but now she is likely to contest the by-election from Nawabshah.
