Independents flock to PTI
The independent winners had three days from the announcement to officially ally themselves with political parties and officially notify the electoral body.
Thursday was the last day for them to officially join parties. However, the victory notifications of 34 constituencies have been stayed by ECP for various reasons including pending cases and delayed polls.
According to sources within the election body, winners now have until 4pm to make the final decisions. Sources also reveal that 29 notifications have been received by the ECP out of which 28 are of those joining the PTI.
