KARACHI: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) directed returning officers to hold re-elections at 43 polling stations of NA-250 Karachi on May 19, Express News reported on Tuesday.
The re-polling will be held at the stations where polling was delayed, or stopped on May 11 due to massive irregularities. Re-polling on PS-12 and PS-13 will also be held on May 19. On May 11, polling at a number of stations in the DHA and Clifton areas of NA-250 saw a delayed start and political parties claimed that rigging was underway. The ECP had stated that polling could not take place at 43 stations as a result of threats to polling staff.
Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) workers and supporters have been holding protests in Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad to protest against the alleged rigging, demanding re-election in all of Karachi’s constituencies. The ECP took notice of the allegations and directed district returning officers and provincial election commissioners to submit reports today.
