Caretaker Sindh Chief Minister retired Justice Maqbool Baqar has expressed satisfaction at the voter turnout in Karachi.

Speaking to reporters in Karachi, he said, “The pattern is the same [during each election] — there are more crowds after lunch. The [number of] voters will increase. Even right now, the turnout is not that bad.”

CM Baqar further said that the caretaker provincial government “fully cooperated” with the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to conduct the polls. Ensuring that the polling staff reaches the stations was the duty of the ECP, he added.
