Supporters of PTI party protest against alleged rigging in general elections in Peshawar

Supporters of the Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf (PTI) political party are currently blocking the road in Peshawar, Pakistan, on February 12, 2024, as they gather to protest alleged rigging in the general elections. The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is in the process of concluding its count of votes from the recent general elections. Candidates supported by jailed former prime minister and main opposition leader, Imran Khan, are emerging as the largest group, but they are not securing an outright majority to form the government. The Pakistan Muslim League (Nawaz), or PML-N, led by three-time prime minister and Khan’s main rival, Nawaz Sharif, is coming up as the second largest party with 75 seats. Following this is the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) led by former Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari with 54 seats. Smaller parties, such as the Muhajir Qaumi Movement with 17 elected candidates, are accounting for the remaining seats in the National Assembly, or the Parliament.
