‘Mujhe kion bulaya’
LAHORE
Senior lawyer and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) backed election contestant, Advocate Sardar Latif Khan Khosa, has raised concerns about the credibility of the upcoming general elections, urging for the deployment of neutral election staff to ensure a fair and rigging-free election day.
At a press conference held at his residence in Lahore’s DHA on Monday, Khosa emphasised a zero-tolerance policy towards any attempts at rigging during the electoral process.
Khosa asserted that February 8 would bring surprises, especially for the PML-N, as he predicted the return of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to London. He humorously contrasted Sharif’s previous stance of “mujhay kion nikala” (why was I ousted) with the current situation of “mujhay kion bulaya” (why was I called back).
Highlighting concerns over potential massive-scale rigging, Khosa pointed out discrepancies in the voter registration process. He claimed that around 60,000 voters from the Defence Housing Authority (DHA) fell within his constituency (NA-122), yet each voter had been registered in separate polling stations. Expressing displeasure over delimitation issues, he noted that voters from one area had been wrongly registered in another, with many polling stations for DHA voters located in rural areas.
