Imran to contest upcoming by-polls on Sep 25 from nine constituencies

Islamabad (HRNW) Former prime minister Imran Khan on Friday announced to contest the upcoming by-elections from all the nine constituencies that became vacant after the National Assembly speaker accepted the resignations of nine Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf parliamentarians.
