On 4 May, during a tense confrontation between former Caretaker Prime Minister of Pakistan Anwaar ul Haq Kakar and PML-N leader Hanif Abbasi. Kakar issued a veiled warning, suggesting that if he were to disclose information about Form-47, the PML-N would find themselves in a difficult position. This exchange implied potential tampering in Form-47 during the election. However, Kakar later stated that his remarks were misrepresented by the media; he merely corrected Abbasi about the wheat scandal, implying that he never mentioned Form-47.[8] Subsequently, PTI also demanded for an independent inquiry into the spat between Kakar and Abbasi and asserted that this verbal altercation has brought to light alleged election rigging.[9]
During the tenure of the caretaker ministry led by Kakar, 3.2m tonnes of wheat was unneccesarily imported leading to a crisis for farmers.[10]
