KHUSHAB – A woman gave birth to a baby boy in Mith Tiwana Rural Health Centre, which has been turned into a polling station for PP-84 by-elections.
Amid the nip and tuck contest between the ruling party and PML-N for the PP-84 Khushab constituency today, a woman gave birth in a polling station located at the constituency.
