ISLAMABAD, July 3: Former prime minister and Pakistan People’s Party Chairperson Benazir Bhutto on Sunday said the discrepancy between the electoral lists of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and Nadra were an evidence of rigging in the forthcoming local bodies elections.

In a statement, she said in many villages across the country, only four or five persons had identity cards without which one could not vote and added that the elections were a farce when identity cards were restricted.
