Interim Prime Minister Anwaarul Haq Kakar has lamented the premature announcement of election results by media houses, saying that there was a projection of “unverified figures” in the process.
“Does anyone know how long did it take to count the votes in the General Elections 2024?” he asked. “We compiled the results in 36 hours. In 2018, it took 66 hours [to count the votes].”
“These things happen in real time and one needs to be reasonable […] we need to follow the set procedures and that is what is democracy,” the premier said.
