Speaking at a press conference in Islamabad, PTI leader Gohar Ali Khan has said that voters cast their ballot in favour of Imran Khan even though the party faced many hurdles in the run-up to the Feb 8 polls.

He asserted that the party had won “180 seats” in the National Assembly. Giving a breakdown, he said that the party had won 42 seats in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, 115 in Punjab, 16 in Sindh and four in Balochistan.

“In Balochistan we got one seat, three are due. In Sindh, we did not get even a single one. In Punjab, we are due around 50,” he said. He further said that the provisional result of the Feb 8 polls was delayed.

Gohar said the party’s victory in Punjab was “diluted”, while it was “eradicated” in Sindh and decreased in Balochistan.
