In a separate development, an election tribunal has dismissed a petition filed by PTI-backed independent candidate Ruba Umar Dar, who challenged the victory of PML-N's Faisal Akram from PP-46, Sialkot. The tribunal, as reported by Dawn - Pakistan, ruled that the petition did not meet the mandatory legal requirements for verification under election law.
The tribunal's decision was based on a preliminary objection raised by Akram, the returned candidate, questioning the petition's maintainability. The petition had alleged tampering with election results, but the tribunal did not consider the merits of the allegations.
