“According to Form 45, we emerged victorious; Hamza Shehbaz was defeated. We condemn this manipulation. This is Pakistan's biggest scam. If this was the intention, why waste the money and time of Pakistanis? This is not an election; it's a selection.”

He added, "TLP's three million votes were cut off. At 1 o'clock, protests will be held across the country." We are also appealing to the courts. TLP has rejected the 2024 elections; yesterday was an important day, and the results are now before you.”
