ECP officials said that a notification in this regard will be issued later.
The ECP had scheduled the voting for one vacant seat on January 7 after the demise of PPP Senator Salahuddin Dogar.

Earlier, Iqbal had been contesting election from NA-196 in RY Khan. However, he was nominated for the Senate by-elections this time and was replaced by Mian Imtiaz.
Party sources say that Iqbal’s daughter MPA Zeb Jaffar will likely be accommodated in the next assembly probably on a reserve seat for women.
