Barrister Gohar has once again been elected unopposed as Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s chairman in the intra-party elections.

According to the final list of candidates issued by the party on Thursday, the only candidate for the post of chairman is Barrister Gohar.

This effectively means that Gohar will be elected as chairman without any competition. However, the decision will be made official when the elections are carried out on March 3.

Voting for the elections will be carried out in the party’s central and provincial secretariats.

Apart from Gohar, four other people have been elected to their posts without any competition as well.

These include Omar Ayub as secretary general, Yasmin Rashid as Punjab president, Haleem Adil Sheikh as Sindh President and Ali Amin Gandapur as KP president.

However, three panels are contesting for the party’s leadership of Balochistan.

These include panels led by Amin Khan Jogazai, Dawood Shah and Munir Ahmad Baloch.

PTI decided to hold its intra-party elections once again after the previous polls were struck down by the Election Commission of Pakistan.

The decision meant that the party was not able to use its symbol, bat, in the general election. Instead, all PTI candidates had to enter the polls as independent candidates.
