ISLAMABAD: Facing a setback after being deprived of its election symbol by the Supreme Court for not conducting intra-party elections, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) is not backing down. Despite the failure of its initial backup plan, PTI has now introduced a new strategy to navigate the upcoming elections.
In a recent video posted on an undisclosed platform, PTI announced the development of an online database. The database aims to provide voters with the ability to search for their constituency and identify the PTI candidate along with the symbol they are contesting on. However, the party clarified that the website is still in the data collection phase and has not been made live.
While this tool could be a valuable resource for voters seeking information on PTI-backed candidates, its success remains uncertain. PTI has acknowledged challenges, with reports of some supported candidates going ‘missing,’ and the online database potentially exposing them to additional risks.
