The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) has nominated Agha Shahbaz Khan Durrani as its candidate for the upcoming by-election in the PS-09 Garhi Yasin (Shikarpur-III) constituency, 24NewsHD TV reported on Sunday.
The party ticket was formally issued with the signature of PPP Secretary General Syed Nayyar Bukhari.
Meanwhile, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (F) has also entered the contest by announcing Rasheedullah Shah as its candidate for the by-poll.
With major political parties now finalizing their contenders, political activity in the constituency is expected to intensify in the coming days.
The seat fell vacant following the death of former provincial assembly member Agha Siraj Durrani.
Polling for the PS-09 by-election is scheduled for December 14, and a closely fought contest is anticipated as both parties accelerate their campaigns.
