On the other hand, Sindh government had removed two-year long ban on pillion riding.

Those contesting the by-poll are: Saifuddin Khalid (MQM), and three independent candidates Zeenat Yasmeen, Abdul Haq and Masood Alam.

The ANP Sindh President Shahi Sayed had announced last night that they were boycotting the by-election. The ANP had fielded Riaz Gul to fight the by-poll in Orangi constituency.

It is worth mentioning here that PS-94 seat became vacated after the killing incident of MQM provincial assembly member Raza Hayder.
