PTI leader Taimur Khan Jhagra has said that party workers are “trying to make sure [that] protests in Peshawar do not block roads from today”, as the party voices its concerns about the elections.

“Citizens should not be inconvenienced by the wrongdoing of a few officers,” Jhagra said in a post on X.

Addressing the chief secretary and the local administration, he said it was their “responsibility to hold to account those responsible for potential criminal action or inaction, or to fix the mathematical errors on nine Peshawar seats”.
