Amid rigging allegations, ECP orders repolling at certain booths

Islamabad, Feb 11 (IANS) Amid allegations of rigging in the general elections, the Election Commission of Pakistan has ordered repolling at certain polling booths.

On February 15, repolling will be held at 26 polling stations of NA-88, PS-18 and at 25 polling stations of PK-90, Dawn reported.
