Loss as a result of election rigging
In the February 18, 2008 elections held in Pakistan, Mr. Nasar lost the election from Loralai District where allegations of massive rigging were made by independent election observers. It is noteworthy to mention that he lost to a candidate Sardar Israr Tareen, from the Pakistan Muslim League (Q) which was being supported at the time by then President Pervez Musharraf's Government.
There were approximately 35000 unregistered votes cast against Mr. Nasar in that election by Pervez Musharraf's provincial government of the time. After a lengthy Court battle, Baluchistan High Court ordered a recount and directed the Election Commission of Pakistan to reverse the original decision and declare Sardar Nasar as winner, but the rival candidate Sardar Israr Tareen remained as a member of Parliament from 2008 to 2011 due to practical difficulties of this unique case.The rival candidate Sardar Israr Tareen has again returned to the national assembly after winning the case on 14 May 2012.
