PTI could not manage to activate and mobilize its voters and party workers, he added.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>PESHAWAR Stirring a new political controversy, as the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) withheld final results of Peshawar mayorship election due to incomplete polling over some of the polling stations.
