According to Election Commission Pakistan (ECP), the polling will begin by 8 am and will happen till 6 pm. But right from the start, the battle gets intense as the Polls are postponed in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. And in Jacobabad due to unavailability of ink, there was a delay in the start of polling.
The same has been the case even in Lahore's NA-128 Polling station as the staff never reached the venue on time. ECP canceled Polling on two NA and six Provincial seats. Power Cut issue in Peshawar caused a delay in polling. Karachi's Voting Booth appeared deserted and a reporter said the residents here wake up only by noon and there might be an increase only after noon.
In Balochistan, Voters were harassed to vote for a particular party. Transgenders are barred to vote in Men's Polling station in Lahore. Women are also barred in Peshawar's Achini area. A blast was heard near Quetta's Eastern Bypass area. This blast has resulted in 10 dead and more than 15 are injured. The blast took place close to a polling station.
