KHUSHAB: Following completion of the vote count at all the 229 polling stations here on 6th of May, it transpired that PML-N’s voters’ propensity has not changed and by casting 73,081 votes they had enabled Barrister Moazzam Sher Kallu beat his main rival PTI’s Ali Hussain Baloch with a margin of 10,178 votes.
Constituency PP-84 Khushab happens to harbor 2,92,687 (155,104 male & 137,583 female) registered voters who were expected to cast their votes at 229 polling stations featuring 666 polling booths. Eight aspirants were in the field: PML’N’s Barrister Moazzam Sher Kallu, PTI’s Ali Hussain Baloch, PPP’s Ghulam Habib Ahmed, banned TLP’s Asghar Ali, independents included Amjad Raza, Aurangzeb, Imran Haider Khan, and Ilyas Khan Azad.
However, the major clash was between PTI’s Sardar Ali Hussain Khan Baloch (who bagged 62,903 votes) and the winner PML-N’s Barrister Malik Moazzam Sher Kallu. It may be recalled that the seat fell vacant as PML-N’s Malik Muhammad expired due to the mysterious respiratory ailment caused by COVID-19.
