Qutub Ali Shah, in his plea, highlighted that the winning margin of the declared candidate is below 4,000 votes. The Commission advised the concerned individual to approach the appropriate Election Tribunal. Independent candidate Sonia emerged victorious in the February 8 general elections for PP-124, Toba Tek Singh. Syed Qutub Ali Shah from PML-N secured 55,930 votes, while independent candidate Sonia clinched victory with 62,062 votes in PP-124, Toba Tek Singh VI.
