Political career

edit

Rabbani Khar was elected as the member of the National Assembly for the first time from two constituencies, NA-137 and NA-138, in 1990 Pakistani general election.[2]

He was re-elected to the National Assembly for the second time in 1997 Pakistani general election.

Rabbani Khar was the father of Hina Rabbani Khar[3] and the younger brother of Ghulam Mustafa Khar.

He couldn't run in the 2002 Pakistani general election because he did not have an undergraduate degree to his name.[4]

Rabbani Khar contested the seat of National Assembly on a ticket of Pakistan Peoples Party from NA-177 (Muzaffargarh) in 2013 Pakistani general election,[5] but was unsuccessful.[6]

He was re-elected as the member of the National Assembly on a ticket of Pakistan Peoples Party from NA-177 (Muzaffargarh) in by-election held in September 2013.[7][8][9][10] The seat had become vacant after Jamshed Dasti who won it in 2013 election vacated it in order to retain the seat he won in his home constituency NA-178 (Muzaffargarh-III).[11]

Rabbani Khar died on 24 January 2022 at the age of 74.[12]
