The Pakistan Markazi Muslim League (PMML), a party that is considered to be backed by Hafiz Muhammad Saeed, has fielded candidates for each and every national and provincial assembly constituency, for the Pakistan general assembly election to be held on February 8, 2024.

Hafiz Saeed’s son, Talha Saeed is contesting from the national assembly constituency, NA-127, Lahore, and PMML’s central president, Khalid Masood Sindhu, is contesting from NA-130, against former Pak prime minister, Nawaz Sharif.

PMML Spokesperson, Tabish Qayyum, said, ‘We have left no seat uncontested. However, our party will be ready to make seat adjustments, if and when contacted.’

In the 2018 general election, the PMML had contested as the Milli Muslim League, the political outfit of the banned Jamaat-Ud-Dawa, but failed to make a mark on any constituency. The PMML emerged after Milli Muslim League was banned by the government.

The election symbol for the PMML is chair.
