Sumayar Valley

The situation in Sumayar is not looking good after the election results. At this moment, it is important for everyone to remain calm and show respect to all, including Mr. Zulfiqar and Mr. Riaz.

To those who lost this election, please remember that political journeys often come with ups and downs. Even Mr. Zulfiqar faced 3 times defeats in the past before achieving success after years of struggle and support from his companions. We hope Zulfiqar Bhai will continue to support his people and work sincerely for a better future of Nagar and Gilgit-Baltistan.

To those celebrating victory, please avoid misbehavior or disrespect in the name of politics. Time changes, situations change, and respect for one another should always remain above political differences.

The Nagar-II election was not just a political contest — it reflected a changing political mindset. With three candidates crossing 20% vote share, the results showed a highly competitive and balanced democratic environment. More importantly, voters largely supported candidates based on party vision, personal credibility, and relationships rather than ethnic or regional divisions — a positive sign for the future of politics in Gilgit-Baltistan.

Congratulations to Mr. Zulfiqar Ali Murad on his electoral victory in Halqa 5. At the same time, congratulations to Riaz Akbar for making a strong entry into electoral politics in his very first election and emerging as the runner-up, reflecting significant public trust and political potential for the future.
