Former Foreign Minister Hina Rabbani Khar is not in the Pakistan People's Party's final list of candidates from Punjab province for the upcoming general election. 

The PPP today issued its list of candidates for National Assembly seats in southern Punjab. Khar's father, Ghulam Rabbani Khar, will be the PPP's candidate for parliamentary seat no 177 in Muzaffargarh district, which was earlier held by her. 

Khar had filed her nomination papers for parliamentary seat no 177, from which she was elected in 2008. However, the Returning Officer had raised objections to her candidature as her husband's textile factory owes Rs 560 million to a bank.
