PTI leader Taimur Jhagra has demanded that the tallying of Form 45 “must be done in line with the Election Act” for his PK-79 constituency.

In a post on X, he said it was being suggested to him to cite his political rival Jalal Khan’s “alleged Afghan nationality” as an issue but asserted that it was “not the basis of my grievance”.

“It is very simple for me. I have obtained 25102 votes. He obtained 1619 votes. The second highest vote-getter JUI-F obtained 5188 votes,” he added.
