      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf-backed Dawar Kundi won the election in Tank’s NA-43 on Monday, defeating Jamiat-e-Ulema Islam’s Mufti Asad Mahmood.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had suspended the polling process in six polling stations due to deteriorating law and order conditions on February 8.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Mehmood had requested repolling in the six polling stations which started at 8:00am and continued till 5:00pm.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;As per results of all 348 polling stations, Kundi secured 64,483 votes, while Mahmood got 63,900 votes, a difference of only 583 votes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;An assailant was killed in a fire exchange with the police after an armed group attacked a polling station in the Tank district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s Dera Ismail Khan on Monday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Reports said that around 25 armed men opened fire on a polling station established in Kot Azam Middle School during polling for the NA-43 constituency.&lt;/p&gt;
