KARACHI – A philanthropist, human rights activist, and lawyer Jibran Nasir, who contested election from Karachi’s NA-247 as an independent candidate, has criticised the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) for the irregularities in his constituency NA-247 in Karachi.
“As per ECP our final count is 6,109 votes in PS111 and we stand at 5th behind PTI, MMA, PPP, PMLN & ahead of MQM, PSP, GDA & TLP. We maintain that Elections were not transparent and severe irregularities were noted. We don’t blame any Party but ECP. We will contest this result,” read his tweet.

The activist went on to assert that numerous irregularities were reported about the polling process which resulted in him dropping from holding the second position down to fifth in the results pouring in from half of the polling stations of the constituency.
