Former prime minister Imran Khan has claimed that PTI-backed candidates are winning on more than 170 seats according to Form 45 data, adding that a “two-third majority” has been secured.

He also lambasted Nawaz Sharif for making a victory speech despite being 30 seats behind.

“No Pakistani will accept this,” Imran said in an AI-generated speech. “International media is also writing about that stupidity.”

Imran said that according to independent sources, PTI-backed candidates were winning over 150 seats before rigging began taking place.

“You have created history,” he added.
