Chaudhry Nisar set to take oath as Punjab MPA
Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) disgruntled leader Chaudhry Nisar has decided to take oath as Member Punjab Assembly (MPA).
According to sources, the irritated PML-N leader has been in contact with former CM Punjab Shehbaz Sharif after which he has now decided to become a Punjab Assembly member after at least 3 years of winning the election from Rawalpindi’s constituency PP-10.
Sources further claim that Mr Nisar has informed Punjab Assembly speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi regarding his decision.
Some sections of the media have speculated that Chaudhry Nisar could take oath as soon as Monday.
Earlier, after the federal government unveiled its plans for electoral amendments, Chaudhry Nisar was advised to take the oath, a duty he has not fulfilled since his win in the 2018 general elections.
In its proposed amendments, the government had said that if a member could not take oath within three months, their membership will be suspended.
Both Chaudhry Nisar and Ishaq Dar are at risk of losing their seats.
Nisar has allegedly been in touch with PML-N President, Shehbaz Sharif. It is being speculated that if Nisar takes oath, he might rejoin his old party.
