Politics.
The political system in Adhikot comprises Namberdars i.e. Clan heads or local representatives. Till 2010, all the Namerdars supported either PMLN or Awami group(Ex Minister Malik Khuda Baksh's group) as this was the pattern followed in the entire district. However, in early 2011, Awami group's leader and Malik KB Tiwana's brother Muhammad Ehsan Tiwana Ex Nazim joined PTI on invitation of Chairman Imran Khan. The political scenario drastically changed in favour of PTI. However, after Ehsan Tiwana being diagnosed with cancer, he encouraged a new leader from Adhikot to contest on NA 70. He was Engr Gul Asghar Baghoor who claims to be once studying on charity money but suddenly in a time of 5 years, owned 20 multi national and is among the richest people in the district. He used his money to gain power in the party and district, and was successful to an ectent. 
In bye elections 2015, Malik Ehsan Tiwana was given authority to allocate PTI tickets in NA 70, he ignored his own group member and loyal political worker Malik Waris Baghoor in order to accommodate PTI Khushab's senior leader and ex ticket holder Malik Gul Asghar Baghoor in Adhikot. It is interesting to note that despite spending millions on the bye election, Malik Gul Asghar lost his home UC of Adhikot against independent candidate Malik Waris Baghoor who later joined PMLN in retaliation of being ignored. Since elections 2018 Adhikot is considered to be PMLN stronghold and hometown of billionaire business tycoon Engr Gul Asghar Khan Baghoor.
