Bilawal Bhutto-led Pakistan People's Party has nominated former Sindh Assembly deputy speaker Shehla Raza to contest the general election 2018 against Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan.

The party on Sunday officially announced the list of their candidates for 160 national and provincial seats of Sindh. Raza will contest the polls on July 25 from Karachi's NA-243 constituency, Geo News reported.

Raza recently made the headlines after a Member of Parliament assembly from Pakistan Muslim League-Functional (PML-F) raised a shoe at her.

Meanwhile, Bilawal will fight the election from Larkana and the party's stronghold Lyari.

Further, former president Asif Ali Zardari will contest the elections from Nawabshah and former opposition leader Khurshid Shah has been nominated for a seat in Sukkur.
