With Streram, the sole challenger from Pakatan Harapan, failing to file his nomination papers, BN candidate Mohamad Hasan has won the Rantau state seat uncontested.

The reason for Azihan's disqualification was that his identity card address was not in Kelantan, which is a prerequisite to contest in the state seat there.
