These figures, synonymous with their respective parties, find themselves at the center of objections, injecting a compelling layer of complexity into the electoral landscape.<\/p>\n<p>Bilawal: An objection has been raised to Bilawal\u2019s nomination for the National Assembly\u2019s NA-127 seat, with the complainant appealing to the returning officer that one person cannot be a member of two parties at the same time.<\/p>\n<p>In the petition filed by a citizen, Muhammad Ayaz, it has been stated that Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari has displayed his affiliation with the Pakistan People\u2019s Party Parliamentarians in his nomination papers. The Pakistan People\u2019s Party and the Pakistan People\u2019s Party Parliamentarians are separate political parties.<\/p>\n<p>The symbol of PPP-P is an arrow, while that of the PPP is a sword. Bilawal is the chairman of the PPP and Asif Zardari is the president of PPP-P.<\/p>\n<p>According to the Elections Act 2017, one person can be a member of only one party at a time. His nomination was against the Elections Act and the returning officer should act according to the law, the application stated.<\/p>\n<p>Maryam: Meanwhile, objections have also been filed over the nomination of PML-N chief organiser Maryam Nawaz from the PP-80 constituency of Sargodha district\u2019s Shahpur area. The petitioner says Maryam is a convict and her nomination papers bear fake signatures. The petitioner says that, as a convict, Maryam does not meet the requirements of articles 62 and 63 of the Constitution. He added that the PML-N leader has also not declared her assets.<\/p>\n<p>Imran: The objections were submitted in writing by local lawyers to the Sargodha returning officer. On the other hand, Imran Khan\u2019s nomination from Lahore\u2019s NA-122 constituency has also been challenged.<\/p>\n<p>Former PML-N MPA Mian Naseer has raised objections, saying the former PTI chairman was ineligible to contest the election.<\/p>\n<p>The returning officer postponed proceedings on the nomination papers till tomorrow. He asked Imran Khan\u2019s lawyers to complete their arguments till 12:30pm on Thursday.<\/p>\n<p>The counsel appealed that the petitioner was not a resident of the constituency concerned and did not have a justification to file objections. He contended that the appeal for objections was not maintainable.<\/p>\n<p>The returning officer concerned is yet to rule on all the objections raised, as the process of scrutinising nomination papers is underway till December 30.<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 2 -->\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As the nation brims with anticipation ahead of the impending general elections, scrutinous attention has turned to the nomination papers of three formidable political stalwarts: Maryam Nawaz of the PML-N, Bilawal Bhutto Zardari representing the PPP, and Imran Khan leading the charge for the PTI.
