PoK polls: Voting for 7 seats delayed following anti-government demonstrations
Due to ongoing anti-government protests in PoK, the election for seven out of 11 seats in the third phase has been put on hold indefinitely. The initial phase of these legislative assembly elections was disrupted by violence and claims of voter fraud, which resulted in multiple fatalities. India has labeled the electoral process a “complete farce,” charging Pakistan with employing force against the local population.
