ISLAMABAD: The unprecedented defeat of all the 261 independent candidates in Sunday’s general elections to the Azad Jammu & Kashmir Legislative Assembly (AJKLA) shows that voters in the area increasingly prefer political parties to powerful individuals.
IN the past, not only have a good number of independents won seats and played a vital role in the formation of governments in Pakistan’s parliamentary history but a similar trend was also witnessed in the recent Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) elections. Independents managed to get more than their share in successive cabinets in exchange for their precious votes. In the GB polls, as many as seven independents a huge number given the 24 directly elected lawmakers had succeeded and proved a great help for the PTI to form its government in the region for the first time in its history.
