KARACHI: The unofficial results of by-elections for 28 local government seats across 14 districts of Sindh, including three in Karachi, showed the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) emerging as the front-runner.

The Election Commission of Pakistan has released unofficial results for all 28 seats. According to preliminary figures, candidates from the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) secured victory in 21 seats, while independent candidates and Tehreek-e-Labaik Pakistan (TLP) won three and two seats, respectively. Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) and the Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) also secured one seat each.

Polling began at 8 am and ended at 4 pm. Voters' turnout remained relatively low across several constituencies. Overall polling process reportedly remained peaceful, however, some sporadic incidents of unrest were reported in Karachi.

The by-polls were held for six chairmen, seven vice chairmen, 13 general members and two district council members. About 243,187 voters (133,038 men and 110,154 women) were eligible to cast their ballots at 168 polling stations.

Major political parties, including PPP, JI, TLP, GDA, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F), and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), fielded their candidates, while several independents backed by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) were also in the run.

By-elections in Karachi were held on five seats across East, West and Keamari districts, with 54 candidates in the fray. According to unofficial results, PPP’s Shahroze Ahmed secured the vice chairman seat in UC-8 of Sohrab Goth with 1,790 votes, defeating independent candidate Jaleel Ahmed Mughiri, who got 166 votes.

PPP also won Karachi’s Bhitt Shah Town Committee’s general member seat with 714 votes, while his two independent rivals together managed just four votes.

In Karachi’s Baldia Town UC-8, PPP’s Mohammad Faisal emerged victorious in the race for vice chairman, securing 3,132 votes. Independent candidate Hasnain Ali Chauhan followed with 1,084 votes, while Jamaat-e-Islami’s Yasir Hayat trailed with 796.

Maybe you should read that a majority of candidates were "elected" unopposed. It means there were no "elections" held in a logical sense as they were all devoid of any competition between the candidates:

ECP noted that out of 67 scheduled by-elections across Sindh, 33 candidates were elected unopposed. No nominations were filed in two constituencies…

Bilawal communicates well and makes a good figurehead.

But his party is full of dross. He needs to shakeup his party bring in people that want to get the work done.

Issue is PPP have 40 years of failure behind them so this is how they are, can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Another headache for the establishment if dealing with balochistan and kpk isn't enough.

Failure is not in PPP but in the election system itself which is unable to wipe out those who failed Sindh for the past 40 years. This is the kind of "democracy" you get in a Fauji Republic.
 
Special thanks to PMLN for trying their luck on these constituencies.

However the real winners are the 2 constituencies and its people who didn't bother fielding candidates.

Despite most heinous propaganda, TLP secured 2 seats which was the combined tally of PTI, GDA, PMLN, JI and all other political parties.

A flourishing democracy is Pakistan's strategic depth.

See this short clip. Benazir and zardari corruption ..why is army supporting them ?
 
Bilawal is looking rather pensive in his engagements recently.

The pressure of non performance is getting to him.

Zardari was different because he didn't care as long as he got his cut. But when you are trying to be a clean and polished leader then you have to be accountable.

I think it's the Ozempic TBH.

He couldn't give a damn about performance. Neither is he on the hook. CM can be blamed in Sindh, Mayor in Karachi, Shobaz chachu in center.

PPP politicians got released by courts
 
By Naeem Ashraf Butt
May 14, 2026

LAHORE: Nadeem Afzal Chan, Central Secretary Information of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), on Thursday said the country’s political system cannot function without the PPP, warning against attempts to sideline the party.

Speaking to ARY News, Chan said the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had already been pushed out of the system and questioned how authorities could exclude the country’s second-largest political party as well.

“You have already thrown PTI out of the system. How will you remove PPP too?” he asked.

Responding to a question about alleged pressure on the PPP, Chan said rumours were circulating regarding a possible 28th Constitutional Amendment, changes to the NFC Award, and the creation of new provinces.

He stressed that the prevailing political system could not continue without the PPP, especially in view of the worsening law and order situation in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan.

“PPP has maintained stability in Sindh. If you exclude PPP from the system, how will you control the situation in Sindh? How will you deal with Sindhi nationalists?” he warned.

Chan said the PPP had already endured pressure from institutions including NAB, anti-corruption departments, and parts of the judiciary over the years.

Commenting on the situation in Punjab, he claimed that several government officials in almost every district had allegedly been “picked up” and later released after giving statements, adding that many subsequently avoided legal proceedings.

He also criticised the governance structure, saying the government was being run in a bureaucratic rather than democratic manner.

Discussing the country’s broader situation, Chan said inflation and unemployment were rising while the agriculture sector was nearing collapse.

He further stated that although the Crime Control Department (CCD) had helped improve security conditions, it was not a permanent solution to underlying issues.

Chan also predicted that PTI founder Imran Khan could be released this year.

“The PTI founder is likely to be released during this year,” he said, adding that any resolution would require dialogue with political parties and should not be viewed as a “deal.”

“When political parties engage in dialogue, it is not called a deal. The Charter of Democracy was also the result of political dialogue,” he added.
