Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf's protest sit-in against alleged rigging in general elections in Lahore entered fourth day on Wednesday. Dozens of PTI workers have camping out at Lalik Chowk in Defence area since May 12 in protest against rigging in NA-122 to NA-125 constituencies. The participants demand that ECP take notice of stealing of their mandate and order recounting in the constituencies.
It may be noted that the PTI has also been protesting in Karachi against vote-rigging, calling for re-election in the city under the Army. PTI says PML-N candidates influenced election results and turned PTI victory to defeat in collaboration with government's machinery. On Tuesday, the party decided to limit the 24-hour protest to two-hours. Senior PTI leader Hamid Khan announced a day earlier that PTI would hold sit-in from 6pm to 8pm daily in the city.
