| Makhdoom Syed Faisal Saleh Hayat has won for a record sixth time from NA-88 (Jhang-III) in the February 18 elections. According to a press release, he has defeated Begum Abida Hussain, his rival in 2008, for a record fourth time. He has always succeeded “due to his attachment with religion”, he says. He enjoys the prayers of thousands of his followers who regard him as the custodian of the Shrine, Hazrat Shah Jewna, says the handout. The press release states that he takes a keen interest in developing his area and has “helped hundreds of educated youth of the area in getting jobs”. He shares in the joys and sorrows of his constituents, he claims, and this is why the people continue to reward him at the polls. |
