Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa President of the Awami National Party (ANP), Aimal Wali Khan, denounced what he described as the marginalization of his party through orchestrated “polls management.”
He asserted that the ANP faces a choice: either passively accept this situation or actively pursue those responsible for it.
Speaking at a big protest rally against alleged polls rigging in Swabi district, Khan vowed that the ANP would not hesitate to pursue accountability for these actions.

However, he emphasized that any actions taken by his party would strictly adhere to the country’s constitution, and there would be no confrontation with the state or its institutions.
Highlighting the constitutional imperative for non-interference by the establishment in state affairs, Khan asserted that the era of the establishment meddling in national politics must end.
He rallied party workers to commit to ending such interference and restoring the primacy of democratic processes.
