10 polling stations selected for NA-125 inspection

LAHORE: An election tribunal on Friday selected 10 polling stations for the inspection and recounting of votes in NA-125, the constituency from where Khawaja Saad Rafique of the PML-N was elected an MNA.
On Friday, the tribunal was informed that Khawaja Saad Rafique and runner-up candidate Hamid Khan of the PTI could not select polling stations of their own choice. To it, the tribunal itself selected 10 different polling stations from the constituency. The selected polling stations include 30, 32, 112, 120, 151, 46, 98, 193, 194 and 195. The tribunal judge personally will inspect the record of the polling stations on March 17.
Hamid Khan of PTI had challenged the victory of Khawaja Saad Rafique of PML-N alleging that he had rigged the election and a large number of bogus votes were cast in his favour. He requested the tribunal to declare the election null and void and announce re-election.
