Cannot hold next general elections within three months: ECP

ISLAMABAD: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) informed President Arif Alvi on Thursday that it cannot hold the next general elections within three months and suggested that the process be held in October as the delimitation of constituencies was not completed.

In a letter, the ECP informed President Alvi that it is entrusted with holding elections “honestly, justly and fairly”. The body also informed the president that the “delimitation of constituencies is one of the foundational steps towards election”.
