It is important to note that Maqbool Ahmad was a Pakistani politician who served as a senator from March 2018 until today. He was chosen as the Pakistan Muslim League (N) (PML-N)’s candidate for the 2018 Senate election in Pakistan. However, following a decision by Pakistan’s Supreme Court, the Race Commission of Pakistan certified all PML-N candidates for the Senate race to be independent. As an independent contender for the general seat from Punjab in the Senate election, he was chosen to serve in Pakistan’s Senate. He received PML-N support during the election and joined the party’s treasury benches after winning. On March 12th, 2018, he was sworn in as a senator.
