MUZAFFARABAD, Azad Jammu and Kashmir: The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) demands re-polling at stations that recorded turnout above 80%, citing alleged irregularities in the 2026 Legislative Assembly elections.
Party sources told ARY News that the PPP raised the demand during negotiations with a government delegation. The delegation agreed to refer the request for consideration.
The PPP also sought fresh elections in four constituencies of Mirpur Division. The party linked its complaints to seats contested by Chaudhry Muhammad Yasin, Javed Iqbal Budhanvi, Chaudhry Pervaiz Ashraf and Chaudhry Muhammad Akhlaq.
