Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) demanded the immediate resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja, citing widespread reports of vote rigging in the recently concluded general elections on February 8. PTI asserts its right to form the government after securing a majority in the 2024 general election and rejects the coalition government. PTI's spokesperson urges the resignation of both the CEC and members of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), alleging violations of the constitution and election irregularities. Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, a PTI leader, declares the party's intention to govern in the centre, Punjab, and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, hinting at a potential alliance with Majlis Wahdat-e-Muslimeen (MWM) to secure reserved seats. The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) releases unofficial results for 264 out of 265 National Assembly seats, with independent candidates leading with 95 seats, followed by PML-N with 79 and PPP with 54. PTI activists stage protests against alleged election irregularities in various cities, facing police actions. Protests are held in Sukkur and outside the Election Commission of Pakistan's Sindh office, with a heavy security presence.
