It hardly matters now, if all 100 MNAs supported by PTI join PMLN or any other party joining the government.
Pakistanis have expressed their thoughts ..
- Khawar Ghaman --

And what is the end result of those thoughts? Their chosen representatives make PMLN the largest party in the National Assembly, and that makes the leader of PMLN the PM. Or a PMLN-PPP coalition is cobbled together. Is that what the people really want?

All MNAs in the 1985 non-party election under General Zia-ul-Haq were independents. Out of those independent MNAs, today's PMLN was born in 1985 and showered with khaki confetti. What an irony!

Jamaat-i-Islami Karachi chief Hafiz Naeemur Rehman on Monday forfeited a Sindh Assembly seat he had won after the February 8 elections over alleged rigging.

According to the provisional results released by the Election Commission of Pakistan for the February 8 general elections, Naeem had won from the PS-129 constituency (Karachi Central VIII) with 26,296 votes.

Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan’s (MQM-P) Muaz Muqaddam was the runner-up with 20,296 votes.

The development comes a day after the party staged sit-ins at eight different key points in Karachi against alleged rigging in the polls.

Hafiz Naeem had earlier stated that his party’s and independent candidates had secured the majority of votes in Karachi’s national and provincial assemblies constituencies but the MQM-P was being imposed on the city.

The JI had also protested outside the office of the Sindh election commission on Saturday, where it was joined by supporters of the PTI and Tehreek-i-Labbaik Pakistan.

Addressing a press conference in Karachi today, an irate Hafiz Naeem said, “A PTI-backed independent candidate has won and I will not avail this seat.”

“When I estimated that there was a difference of a few hundred votes, I asked my team for each and every Form [45]. When we checked, we found out that the ECP had shown fewer votes for us but as I did not succeed, I forfeit this seat,” he said.

Lawyer Jibran Nasir says over 30 petitions filed in SHC against ‘malicious tabulation’ of poll results​

Lawyer and activist Jibran Nasir has said that more than 30 petitions have been filed in the Sindh High Court (SHC) by his panel “Safeguard Karachi’s Vote” against the “malicious tabulation” of electoral results.

Speaking to the media in Karachi, Nasir said 17 PTI-backed candidates were being supported by the panel, adding that all candidates had similar pleas of malicious tabulation by returning officers misrepresenting the total count of Form 45 in Form 47.

In a post on X, Nasir said the SHC had given the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) till 11am tomorrow to come up with a “lawful and reasonable solution” to the issue.

He said the SHC has cautioned the ECP to not insist on any “flawed results” and to notify the returned candidates as soon as possible otherwise the court would be forced to intervene.
