PTI leader Haleem Adil Sheikh has said that the Form 45s issued by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) for NA-238 indicated signs of overwriting.

“The tampered forms uploaded today are not credible and the whole world has seen how much chaos the election commission has caused,” he said in a post on X.

“All the original Form 45s are with me, which includes 82,972 votes for me and MQM-P candidate Sadiq Iftikhar’s 10,226 votes,” Sheikh said, adding that his votes were tampered to 36,875 in Form 47 while the MQM-P candidate was made to win with 54,884 votes.

He urged Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja to resign immediately. “Our real result should be handed over to us,” he demanded.
