Allegations have emerged from political circles regarding alleged pre-election restrictions in Gilgit-Baltistan ahead of the upcoming electoral campaign.
According to these claims, changes were made at key administrative levels, including the appointment of a new Inspector General in the region, which critics argue has influenced the political environment.
It is also being claimed that extended deployment of security forces until 14 June has further intensified concerns about the electoral playing field.
Opposition voices allege that these developments have resulted in restrictions on PTI’s campaign activities, including limitations on political outreach and movement of party leadership into the region, while other political parties are reportedly operating with greater freedom.
The situation has sparked accusations of pre-poll manipulation and administrative bias, with calls for equal political opportunity and transparent electoral conditions in Gilgit-Baltistan.
