PML-N grabs Sargodha seat

According to unofficial results, PML-N candidate Shafqat Hayat Baloch has won the NA-168 seat of Sargodha.

Earlier PML-N polling agents and PPP voters were involved in a scuffle at a polling station in Gujranwala by-polls.

Polling for by-elections in NA-155 Lodhran, NA-100 Gujranwala and NA-168 Sargodha started amid tight security earlier in the day.

Tough competition was expected among the candidates of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) in NA-155.

In NA-155 Lodhran, PPP candidate Hayatullah Khan seems to be ahead of PML-N's candidate Akhtar Kanju. Kanju is also being supported by the PML-Q.

The seat of National Assembly in Gujranwala was vacated by PML-N's candidate, Haji Mudasir Qayoom Nahira after his disqualification from the court on having fake degree. Nahira's brother, Azhar Qayoom, is participating in the by-polls at the PML-N's ticket.
