PTI Senior Vice President Latif Khosa has claimed that 50 PTI-backed independent candidates are winning on Form 45s with a margin of thousands of votes.

Talking to ARY News, Khosa said: “We have clear official stamps, signatures of presiding and polling officers as well.”

He said the PTI would get back these 50 seats, saying that adding them up with the reserved seats for women and minorities would take the party’s number to around 170 seats.

“When we reach this count, we can form the government ourselves,” Khosa asserted. He said the party would happily sit in the opposition instead of forming a coalition government at the “behest of others”.
