Dude, get some reality check. This is the seat Sr Gillani won by 20000+ votes in 2008. Despite spending billions of rupees in this constituency and extensive campaigning, his son won by only 4000+ votes. Come proper general elections, this strongest hold of PPP in punjab may well be lost. Remember, there was no campaigning by PTI. Dont forget the turn out too.
Live in the bubble and rejoice in this victory but so called 'anti-ppp' forces will see the potential of a very probable win here in the elections.
khisiani billi khamba nochay:) Only Allah knows what will be future like. The present has proved you guys absolutely wrong.

Hamir Mir also said the same thing that these guys have been claiming to beat their opponent by 50,000 votes and will at least get 90,000 votes so even if they win by 4000-5000 then it should be a big shock for PPP government considering the fact that whole government has been campaigning for Gilani whereas his opponent had no official support or campaign. Blillions of rs were spent to ensure victory for corrupt Gilani family.
One of the biggest factor that has also been ignored and PPP rep himself mentioned this in Kashif Abbasi's program that these elections are on old voter list which is bogus. Another couple of hundred thousand people will be added to this list (most of them very young and first time voters).
Only thing that will go in Gilani's favour in general election is if PMLN somehow give ticket to Shaukat Bosan as PTI's candidate will be his other brother (Sikandar Bosan).
It should be a HUGE moral victory for Bosan considering the fact that this was bye election
Apart from the fact that junior Gilani won by a much smaller margin than expected, there are news of a fair amount of poll rigging all over. Voters are complaining of their names being missing from the voter's list. Votes were stamped in on behalf of people who were not even there. People were bussed in by PPP, a practice which has been declared illegal by the EC. All this for a marginal victory.
PPP took advantage of perhaps the last election under the previous fake voter list.

**This election was held in Punjab ,where ruling party PML N was supporting PTI candidate .
All liability goes to them .
**Think what will happen in General election .
Result like 1996 & 2002
Bottom line is this that the people hate puppets of establishment .
Then how come Malik Riaz's friend, ally of MQM and PML(Q), friend of deputy prime minister, was elected? People must love puppets of establishment, specially when they import intoxicating drugs.
Like it or not, your dear old PPP is being run by puppets of establishment now.

Ally with PML N and sponsor of PTI also .I remember last Ramdhan Luxorius Iftar dinner at Dharna
And there is another story of 240 m .Let that come out .
Bottom line is PPP won whether 1 vote, 4000 vote or 400000 votes who cares, proving dharmatmay pandit of anti-ppp absolutely wrong.
PMLQ also won all the bye elections prior to 2008 general elections.
This bye election is an indication of what is coming up for PPP in next general election.
I doubt if they can win more than 10 seats in next election from Punjab.
In bye election people know they can not change anything.. but when they will vote in the general election they will certainly ask themselves if they want the same government for next five years.
Next general election will be a vote against all the corrupt politicians just like Bhutto's election was a vote against the 22 elite business families.
Mark my words.. !!!!

PTI candidate? PTI endorsed the independent candidate. He was not running on behalf of PTI, neither did PTI run a campaign for him. PTI and PML-N favored Bosan more because he was running against Mr. Hajj Scandal.
As far as the gaddis are concerned, the Gilanis and the Shahs and the Jatois will always win a seat or two from their slaves, so it is not out of the ordinary to have seen Jr. Gilani win a seat. Now his father will perhaps get some time to become a 'practicing' pir.

Read above two replies. A seat that is normally considered a given for PPP, they won it after such a hard time... despite no campaigning by PML-N or PTI. And had it been someone else other than Pir Gillani, he would have lost.
Consider a different constituency which may usually be fought more closely and with official endorsements from opposition parties, PPP will be in trouble. But aap khush ho layn. choti choti khushiyan.. roti kapra makaan na sahi, aik inconsequential bye election victory hi kaafi hai jiyalon k liye.
