Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) candidate and former Punjab minister Haroon Sultan have created a controversy by saying that voting for women is 'Haram'. Sultan is contesting elections from the National Assembly's NA-18 seat against the Pashtun Tehreek-e-Insaf Party female candidate Jeohar Basit Sultan. Zaheer is considered as Sultan's sister-in-law. Sultan was a social welfare minister in the PML-N government in Punjab. 

According to the news, while addressing a rally in his constituency Muzaffargarh, Sultan said that he will follow the instructions of religion and said, "Do not vote for any female candidate because it is considered Haram (forbidden in Islam)." He said, "I will work under the instructions of Allah and the prophet, and I will avoid acting on the contrary." Elections in Pakistan are constitutional rights, but millions of women do not allow men to exercise the franchise. 

Recently, A very big operation of racial cleansing of Sikhs from Pakistan is in progress with the ISI thoroughly eradicating them from all from corner to corner of the nation and in neighbouring Afghanistan. On Sunday, a crowd of Sikhs and Hindus, who were on their way to rally the country's president in the eastern region on Nangarhar, were attacked by a suicide bomber.

A mass of the 19 killed in the attack are from the minority Sikh and Hindu community, including the single candidate for parliamentary elections Avtar Singh Khalsa, activist Ravail Singh, Sikh Community talking head Iqbal Singh and peace advocate Anup Singh.
