ISLAMABAD (Kashmir English): The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has gained a great political boost in Azad Kashmir, as Chaudhry Abdul Razaq, along with his colleagues and the local leadership, officially joined the party.
Chaudhry Muhammad Razaq, an independent assembly candidate from Constituency LA-6 Samahni, led hundreds of vehicles and reached Islamabad to officially join the PML-N AJK.
Former Assembly candidate and Senior Vice President of PML-N, Raja Maqsood Ahmed Khan, welcomed the distinguished guests along with the party workers.
Federal Minister for Kashmir Affairs Engineer Amir Muqam, former Prime Minister AJK Raja Farooq Haider, PML-N President Shah Ghulam Qadir, Secretary General PML-N AJK Chaudhry Tariq Farooq, former government minister Farooq Sikandar, DG Information (retd) Raja Azhar Khan, Raja Razaq Kashmiri, and others were present at the ceremony.
The inclusion of Chaudhry Abdul Razaq is being described in political circles as a major setback for PTI and a significant political success for PML-N. This decision is likely to affect not only Samahni but also the political alignments in the entire region.
The party leaders said that PML-N is committed to the agenda of public service, supremacy of the constitution and law, and development of the region.
Speaking on the occasion, Abdul Razaq said that he had taken this decision keeping in mind the public interest, political stability, and confidence in the leadership of PML-N.
He said that he would play a full role from the party platform for solving the problems of the people of Samahni and for the development of the region.
According to political observers, after this inclusion, the political competition in the Samahni constituency is going to become more interesting and decisive in the context of the upcoming elections.
