KHUSHAB: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) was ahead of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) after polling ended in the PP-84 Khushab constituency of Punjab, according to unofficial and unconfirmed count of votes.
As this story went to print, the counting of votes was under way in the Khushab city of Punjab’s Sargodha district after polling ended largely peacefully at 5pm. Geo News reports suggest the voter turnout at the 229 polling stations was satisfactory.
PML-N’s Moazzam Sher Kallo was ahead with 7,061, while PTI’s Sardar Ali Hussain Baloch trailed with 4,712 votes. The seat fell vacant after the death of PML-N Member of Punjab Assembly Malik Waris Kallu, who died on March 12, from Covid-19.
