Pakistan's People's Party (PPP) has won the largest number of National Assembly (NA) seats, but not secured a majority, according to incomplete results shown by local TV channel Geo on Tuesday.
The PPP has got a total of 88 NA seats, followed by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) with 65 seats in the second place, Geo reported, adding that 254 seats among a total of 269 have been polled.
Thus even if all the remaining votes go to PML-N, PPP will still get the largest number of NA seats in the general elections.
The former ruling party Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) won 37 NA seats so far, the Geo report said.
The polling staff have been counting the votes. However, no party will gain majority votes in the elections because there are only 15 seats unannounced.
Former Chief Minister Punjab Chaudhry Pervez Elahi, a top leader of PML-Q, Tuesday said he accepted the election results with open heart. |
