I am in direct contact with Karachi leadership, and I would say it is a mixed bag. There are some really great people in there, but there are parts of it that are very slow to act. I can give them some leeway due to the fact that MQM was a militant group until recently, and things have changed drastically in the last year. But I really think that they need to get a move on, and organize themselves much better.

I was thinking that due to the fact IK is standing from Khi this time will create a wave in favor of PTI and the local leadership will show more passion so let's see if they start doing anything on the ground. ALH seems to be active i wasn't expecting him to do anything on ground but he is looking active.

Amir Liaqat Hussain is very active, and is rallying a lot of support. I think he will contest from NA-245, and it's looking like a sure win. He is the most active right now. He went to Korangi the other day to meet people too.

He is a big asset, but also a big risk too. You never know when he will switch sides again. He can work wonders, but also backfire badly on PTI, huge gamble. In my opinion, it is working out as NA-245 is now looking like a PTI seat. In fact, PTI will probably win all 4 seats in district East.

Yea he is a missile that can go in any direction lol so PTI should be careful. Is NA-245 still same? PTI had 55,000 votes from there in 2013. PTI also shown really good fight on NA 251, 252, 253 and 256. Any idea who is going to be the PTI candidate from the seat where Naz Baloch was given ticket back in 2013? She will probably going to get PPP ticket from there

Yeah, PTI got 50,000 votes in the same area as NA-245 was.

NA 251, 252, 253, 256 are the four district East seats, now NA 242, 243, 244, 245. PTI will sweep these, all mostly middle class areas with a lot of PTI support.

Tickets will be finalized in early May, I think Naz Baloch will probably end up winning her seat as the PPP candidate running against her also got a good 20,000 votes.

Wouldn't it be great if Maryam decided to do something similar. I am sure all these Nooras would "trust"them with their money. Come on Nooras tweet Maryam so that she can do something good for PK and you guys can contribute.
 
PTI is winning NA-17 Haripur for sure. Haripur is a Hazara district historically known as pro PMLN. PTI is getting strong in Aboottabad and Haripur but they are really weak in Maryam bibi's susral i mean Mansehra district of hazara.

On the request of PTI's Dr Arif Alvi the date to register/move your vote is extended from 24th April to 30th April so hurry up guys and do let your family and friend know there is still time we need more and more votes if we really want a change. In 2013 i came to know about many young guys who promoted PTI on social media but never registered their vote and didn't bothered to visit a polling station to vote maybe they were expecting miracles? Motivate others to vote even if they want to vote for other parties it's healthy for our democracy.

Yes, he was attacked.

All the MQM workers who have switched to PTI are actually in serious danger. A few of the workers who switched last year received a lot of threats from MQM.

Cheema Group of Sargodha joined PTI and they are really strong and influential

What is the update on KPK Budget for next year ?

IK does not want PTI led gov to announce budget and what is the Line of PTI Law makers in KPK ?


How will it impact PTI ?

PTI looking strong, enough to win election?

Most likely that they will form government with PML-Q, BAP, Independents, and some smaller parties.

PML-N and PPP may join, but at this stage, they may not even collectively win enough seats.
 
Mian said:

PTI actually looking very strong in Sargodha now. First they got Nadeem Afzal Chan, and now this development.

PML-N should be really scared, because PTI is now infiltrating into Central Punjab too, before they were only really making gains in the South.

All of Habib Akram's survey results so far compiled.

Wow this is BRILLIANT work bro, helps understand strengths and weaknesses, great thinking!!

I must say Habib Akram has been acting very neutrally while conducting these surveys, he always had (probably still has) soft corner for Nawaz Sharif but deserves credit for presenting accurate analysis.
 
Mian said:
Good job! The MNA candidate in nankana sahib is going be Ali Salman? The guy he won as MPA ind and joined PTI?
Click to expand...

I really like Ali Salman, have interacted on twitter a few times. He was probably only MPA from Punjab (maybe there was 1 other, can't recall) who joined PTI after winning as Independent. I believe he applied for ticket in same constituency as Bilal Virk who joined form PMLN which makes it really a tough choice but i would give him the ticket purely based on fact that he is young, educated, ideological and electable so should get ticket while we adjust Bilal Virk somewhere else.

Yea i also follow him on Twitter he is a hard working guy a lawyer and always working in his constituency. I heard Bilal Virk consistency is gone afetr new halqa bandyan so there is a chance Ali Salman will be given the ticket.

A point to note there are so many young lawyers in PTI. Waleed, Hammad, Ali Salman, Fawad etc and than there are seasoned ones like Hamid Khan, Naeem Bukhari and Babar Awan

I still believe the big wicket referred to Ch Nisar but he is a confused man and still not ready to fly it was pretty clear from IK's yesterday interview with Arshad Sharif. I don't think wicket was the only reason IK left Lahore that day because of a security threats

That is brilliant! I think PTI are also pretty much confirmed on one of Umerkot and Tharparkar, and they have a real chance in Dadu because an electable joined from there a long time back (Liaqat Ali Jatoi).

Habib Akram says MMA and other parties missed the train in KP and it's PTI all the way there. People are so happy with the policies of PTI like health, education, police etc they don't care mega structure and IK educated them that what's necessary before building mega infrastructure. A thing to learn from KP voters! I am a Punjabi but i am proud of KP voters who don't blindly follow their leaders

PTI have actually done a brilliant job of educating and making the people aware of how other parties have been fooling them for decades. I think PTI have sucessfully created an ideology based thinking in KPK, which is what his overall aim is for all of Pakistan.

Contrary to common belief, PTI is actually stronger in Rural Constituencies across Punjab. Reliable source.
 
Wow PTI is more popular in Abbotabad Hazara now than PMLN and current MNA from there is of PMLN and he is deputy speaker in NA.

The other day I was thinking, instead of joining PTI why doesn't Chaudry Nisar join with Shiekh Rashid in the Awami Muslim League. They both will rule over Pindi and can easily nab 2-3 NA seats.

I would like to know if this interview was conducted before Khawaja Asif's disqualification or after? These are the results from 2013, PTI trailed by 20k votes (keep in mind there was massive rigging in this halqa as well)

I have a feeling this interview was conducted BEFORE the na-ehli and now the divide might be like 46-52 in favour of PTI.

Habib Akram is really doing a service to the nation by going to every big and small city and guaging political temp, I used to take him for a lifafa journalist and actively avoided any show he was on, but credit where credit due.


Also if PTI has gained this much ground even before election campaigning then they can actually win this seat if they put time and effort. I like Usman Dar, he is a capable young guy and possibly a future important leader of PTI in post-Imran era.

My only worry is Aapa Firdos and Dars are not on same page in Sialkot although their constituencies are different but aapa use to stand from 2 seats there. Usman and Umar Dar are the reason PTI is becoming strong by every passing day in Sialkot and they are working on ground from years and also offered resources to PTI. Their father was an honest businessman he also worked hard for his city when he was part of LG during Mush time
 
Any idea if Fixit guy will be able to win his seat from Karachi based on party vote bank? He is going to be PTI candidate from 1 NA seat there

I'm a big fan of Sialkoti people, I've only met two or three in my life but all of them displayed that same enterprising personality trait that is abundant in Sialkot - which is why the city has been able to stand up on her own feet without much assistance from government.

Last I heard he was going to get MPA ticket and not MNA ticket. He is popular amongst the middle and upper middle class folks. The bulk of the voter base which comprises of the poor may not be aware of his existence. He can definitely win his seat though.


If there was one guy who I would want to be Karachi mayor its this guy, when he can do this much effort without government support imagine what he can do when he has the government machinery to back him.

Talking about Skt, What gunda-gardi and Bhatta-mafia show happened in days leading to marriage of Khawaja's Son, right from Vintage movie dons' books. Na-ehl Khawaja bulldozed an under construction plaza when the owner refused jagga tax.

Without Khawaja, not much for PMLn in Skt. Besides Dar, for PTI, Akmal/Ajmal Cheema brothers are also electables. And also, couple of PMLn MPAs are in trouble courtesy NAB cases against family members.

PTI Sialkot team has done good ground work because office holders,barring few, are the ones who have been with PTI since early 2000s and they bond well together.

2 of them are sure wins (Usman Dar and Firdous Ashiq Awan), the other 3 look difficult. PTI did not get even half of PML-N's votes in any of the other 3, and I don't think we have any strong candidates there either.

He will run on a PS in Gulshan seat I think, not NA seat. Looking very strong, PTI will most likely sweep all the NA and PS seats in District East.

Thanks for the info buddy
 
PTI has recovered well in Khawaja Asif's constituency.

I can see more and more people finally speaking up against Sharifs and their corruption, if it becomes a bigger issue then PMLN will stand no chance.
