Punjab police called to AJK for 'specific purposes', alleges PPP AJK chief
Says PML-N leader Rana Sanaullah has announced the party’s victory months ago
Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) president Chaudhry Yasin accused Punjab police of being called to AJK with specific intentions during the third phase of the 2026 general elections. Yasin, who spoke at a press conference alongside former health minister Javed Budhanvi and Arshad Sohaib, expressed concerns over the transparency of the election process.
The PPP leader criticized the Election Commission for conducting the polls according to its own preferences, rather than following the intended process. Yasin highlighted the controversy surrounding LA-9 constituency, accusing the PML-N of securing a victory ahead of time and demanding an investigation into the alleged rigging in disputed constituencies.
Meanwhile, the Chief Election Commissioner of AJK, retired Justice Mustafa Mughal, confirmed that polling in four constituencies of Bagh and Haveli districts would take place on Monday. The final phase of elections is expected to be closely observed as political parties aim to secure their positions for the formation of the next government in AJK.
