Polling is in full swing in the PP-84 Khushab constituency, where the seat fell vacant after the death of the PML-N MPA on March 12 from COVID-19.
Khushab’s by-election saw something interesting today when a woman gave birth in a polling station located at the constituency. The child was born at the Mith Tiwana Rural Health Centre, which has been turned into a polling station for the by-poll.
The newborn’s father, Salamat, said he was overjoyed over the birth of his child. “I am very happy at the birth of my child on the election day. Insha’Allah we will name the child after giving some though to it. Whichever name we think is suitable,” he added.
The baby born is the first child to the family.
Residents of Khushab are exercising the right to vote for their preferred candidate in to the PP-84 Punjab Assembly seat. PTI’s Sardar Ali Hussain Khan Baloch and PML-N’s Malik Moazzam Sher Kallu are the top contenders.
