Rawalpindi: Former Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PMLN) leader Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has said on Friday that he will contest the upcoming elections of the National and Provincial Assemblies as an independent candidate.
He made the announcement to anchor Saleem Safi, which will be aired today (Sunday).
The former interior minister said that he will decide to join a political party after the elections. In response to a question, he said that Imran Khan is his friend and joining PTI may harm that relationship. In 2018, the disgruntled PMLN leader had contested two seats in the National Assembly and one in the Punjab Assembly. He lost both the National Assembly seats but managed to win the provincial seat.
Chaudhry Nisar said that Wali Khan and Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto were his favorite politicians. He said that there is no value for a good man in the PML-N and the bad cannot be caught. He said that Mehwish Hayat was his favorite actress. In response to a question, Chaudhry Nisar said that Miftah Ismail is an economist and Ishaq Dar is an accountant. He said that the army has really become neutral.
