Re-polling is to be held today in several polling stations of NA-88 (Khushab II), PS-18 (Ghotki I) and PK-90 (Kohat I), according to the Election Commission of Pakistan.

In an earlier statement, the ECP had said that elections would be re-conducted in 26 polling stations of NA-88 as the polling material had been burned by a crowd.

It further said that polls would be held again in two stations of PS-18 as “unknown men had snatched polling material” there.

The reason for re-election in more than a dozen polling stations of PK-90 was the “polling material there being damaged by terrorists”, the ECP had said.
