The PTI leadership alleged on Wednesday that the Form-45s published by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on its website were heavily tampered with. The results were changed in favor of PTI’s rivals, and voter turnout crossed 100 percent at several polling stations.
Addressing a press conference, PTI Chairman Gohar Ali Khan said that after the elections, one tried to forget the past and move forward, but if the elections were rigged on such a large scale, it became next to impossible.
Flanked by PTI senior leaders Taimur Khan Jhagra and Salman Akram Raja, Mr Gohar said the party would show vote rigging evidence of the constituencies where PTI-backed candidates were defeated with overnight changes in the results by comparing Form-45 of the ECP with the original one available with all candidates.
He said the poll fraud evidence had become more apparent after the commission published Form-45s on its website.
The PTI chairman reiterated that his party triumphed in 180 National Assembly seats under “original” Forms-45 in the general elections. “Our mandate was stolen through results tampering, unprecedented in the country’s political history,” he insisted.
