Pakistan has temporarily suspended mobile services across the country as polls open for the general elections.
The Interior Ministry says this is to maintain law and order amid security concerns.
Islamic State claimed responsibility for a bombing in the south western province of Balochistan, which killed at least 28 people on Wednesday.
The vote was delayed twice last year over political unrest.
Al Jazeera’s Kamal Hyder is monitoring the latest developments in Islamabad and Assed Baig is on the phone from Lahore.

This is the worst elections in the history of Pakistan.
Pakistan has never seen a free and fair elections
Congraulation nawaj sharif 😂😂😂
No internet no mobile service Pre pole regging start.
its poll day rigging.
Imran Khan is equally corrupt as the trash he claims to oppose. They are all a bunch of criminals who are squabbling, power politics for the sake of enrichment of their own cronies. None of them have an inkling of how to implement a real industrial policy. This whole circus is orchestrated to distract the masses from the total elite capture of the 🇵🇰 state. There is no hope for the country unless a working class party comes to power which ain’t happening.
Good reporting from both of the reporters from the ground.
Yes that’s is how pak Army control election and results. Al Jazeera can open new office from Pakistan for reporting blast every day.
Election in pakistan ❎
Selection in pakistan ✅
They should do that in the U.S.A.
US doesn’t use ballet system, it’s outdated still it’s working🙄
Pakistan Army Chief is a PIG and son of SATAN. He is a parasite of Pakistan
Internet suspended = riged elections
Went to vote the staff at the polling station weren’t present
Assed? 😂
It’s called oppression.
yeah what good would that do ?
Good reporting
let’s see what will happen to pak today 😁😁
Shameful act
American slaves Pakistani Army and present govt. All is being done on the directions of America and UK. America will never allow peace in Pakistan
In my opinion, suspension of public transport and mobile services, may make difficult, for common people to come to polling stations and vote.
Can we call it a prepoll plan?
Its a joke with poor people of Pakistan. Waste of their money , Nawaz is PM already 😢😢😢😢
ARMY PLAYING IT’S DIRTY GAME
PAKISTAN ARMY IS AN EVIL ORGANIZATION
Establishment ( Pakistan Army) stop Imran Khan at any cost… To appease USA.
Pakistan and Russia have more in common than they think.
Where is “Aksai chin” part of Jammu and Kashmir.When you handed over this to China @ Al Jazeera!!!
# missing in the map of jnk
Pakistan Army should be ashamed
Criminals are ruling Now, Army + Mafia Politics ……They will not tolerate Imran Khan elect again ….if he elect,mafia will be finish from Pakistan
Corrupt military establishment is suspending cellular phone service to make massive rigging to get the election won in favour of corrupt Nawaz Sharif.
If Imran’s coup, his arrests, his assassination attempt, his persecution weren’t approved by America, you’d bet Blinken would’ve flown in to preach about “democracy.” They don’t coz they support it. Not only because Imran was a non compliant but it also serves as testing ground for them to find out how to deal with Trump.
Free Free Pakistan 😂😂

Its not to maintain security rather to control the elections. Its s shame.

Demokrase
Just a jacked up election helped by the US. No wonder they jailed Imran & paid the army as usual??? What a farce…..
Selection by the army
ik❤❤
Hahahaha
Great impact on mobile stopping
They give lectures to India on democracy. But cannot even hold an election.. peace fully lmao
Indeed IMRAN KHAN is the chosen PM to run the country. Despite being forced in prison for bogus allegations. These elections have not been fair for PTI politicians and the army and supreme court is to be blamed for this unfair treatment towards PTI members and supporters.
Army brought Imran Khan, army took out Imran Khan…
He will make Pakistan a riyasat-e-madina and bring sharia law.
I LOVE MY PAKISTAN. I LOVE MY ARMY. I LOVE MY PEOPLE. IMRAN KHAN WAS A DISASTER FOR OUR COUNTRY. THANKS TO ARMY TO REMOVE THIS KIND OF DUFFER MAN.PROUD TO BE A PAKISTANI.
U r a puppet
sooo you are with robbers and you support zionism because these people hate Imran Khan due to his action for Gaza.
Our support with Imran Khan.
Imran Khan ❤
IMF Pakistan 😂😂😂
Free balochistan😢
the general dollars are doing these attacks on behalf of isis or other terror groups. IT is on the command of their masters
Pakistan seems doom without imran

Casted my vote with all family Alhamdulillah for qaidi NO. 804…✌️
Dear Pakistanis…as an Indian leaving all the enemities aside for some moment i think IMRAN KHAN is a good leader…plz fight to have a good and visional leader…don’t let radicals rule ur country..all the best..may god protect u.😊
Thanks for your kindness We all are with Imran Khan inShaAllah he will win. these all actions are being done to prevent Imran Khan from being PM but we will see him as PM inShaAllah

this is all being done to prevent İmran Khan from being PM but inShaAllah he will be our PM because he is real representative of the feelings of all Pakistanis who need freedom from foreign involvements in our issues
Stop blaming other countries for your own terrible country and start blaming yourselves
@@jaisriram295 i haven’t demanded your suggestion okkk
Vote for captain
Record breaking rigging is happening in PP 31 Gujrat MOINUDDIN Pur… influential local supporters of Chaudhary Salak, son of traitor Chaudhary Shujaat, have kicked out PTI’s polling agents and took an hour to cast countless fake votes …those corrupt drug dealers have hijacked the entire voting system
Typical Pakistan lol
That’s how election happens in Banana Republic.
No Internet!
No Mobile services!
Terror attacks everywhere!
Most popular party destroyed!
Most popular leader is in jail!
In short, Pakistan army is on a mission of selecting new Puppet PM 😂
Democracy is formality in world.All leaders are choosen before hand
Mobile service and internet are closed and People can’t find out location for casting vote.Just tp create problem for Imran Khan voters.
Already they announced they will select Nawaz Sharif .But Imran Khan and his voters still fighting through their votes.Msg from Imran Khan,vote is only way ,u can change ur country destination.But he is loyal, honest and patriot Pakistan.
We will Fight till end
Imran Khan will be the Prime Minister of Paakistan
No net and cell phone service what is going on.
ElecSHUN by Baloch! 😂😂
Internet close reason was afraid from own people not the security reason
In name of security ???
In the names of security. MR IMRAN KHAN PRIMEMINSTER in prison. In name of security over 15 thousands PTI WORKERS in prison.
In the name of security the ARMY CHIEF, CHIEF JUSTICE AND POWER CORRIDORS ARE URINE ON THE HEADS ON PAKISTANIS. AT SAME TIME TELLING PAKISTANIS AND THE WORLD ITS RAINING.
ONLY TO PLEASING THEY MASTER USA.
IN THE NAME OF SECURITY ?????

Army is taking control everything, i don’t think they will allow the free & fair election, Imran khan will come if election become the free & fair
We want pice in Pakistan kpk Balochistan
Shame on military
Not election rather selection of a dictator.
shame on pdm and big neutral call services and net services off very shameful
Pakistan election is a sham. The Army controls Pakistan, and they have decided to Corrupt Na Nawaz Shareef as the next PM.
Now its time to manage the votes and make nawaz pm
Imran should be the pm because Pakistan people supports him in majority
Great leader Imran khan ❤
One of the two women in prison while contesting in Lahore’s elections is Dr Yasmeen Rashid of PTI, a 70+ years old cancer patient who is opposing Nawaz Sharif, 3 times former Prime Minister of Pakistan
Fake Elections
Where there’s a civil martial law. There’s no value of elections and democracy.
Pm Imran khan great honest leader ❤
Not fot law and order but military shutoff mobile and internet service for rigging election.
More than 70 % trun out to day .but military controling most of the polling stations under the police and under cover force
This goes to show exactly what century Pakistan lives in. A total shutdown of mobile networks but still the country manages to pull off an election. Somehow, people in this, libility on the rest of the world, country don’t really know how important mobile internet and communications is to the infrastructure of a country.
U loose when you give up, When Allah is with you nobody can break you!!!!!
This is not unprecedented step by blocking internet throughout Pakistan.Internet has been shut down not to maintain law & order rather to stage rigging on a massive scale.
We stand with Imran Khan PTI. We stand with Imran Khan.
Major General ISI Faisal Naseer is Hiding His and General Bajwa’s Corruption. They are using local police like their gestapo
Imran Khan honest leader
In the next election they will turn off power as well, hey you never know considering the volatile atmosphere there.
After all brutal crackdown against ” Imran Khan ” party has already won elections now army is trying to rig election at election night
Islam and Democracy are like water and oil. They don’t mix.
Corrupt Army = Pakistan
Corrupt Politician = Nawaz Shareef
Pathetic Politician = Imran Khan
Media = Dollars Earner Fake Reporting
