The spokesperson highlighted that a total of 260 million ballot papers were printed for this election, representing a substantial 54.74% increase in candidates compared to the previous elections.

The comprehensive preparations and meticulous planning undertaken by the Election Commission of Pakistan signify a commitment to conducting an inclusive, transparent, and well-organized electoral process. The announcement of unofficial results for all constituencies will mark a crucial milestone in the culmination of the election, reflecting the culmination of extensive efforts to ensure the integrity and legitimacy of the democratic exercise.
