ECP ready to hold general elections by October

Islamabad: The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Thursday said that the commission is ready to hold general elections in the country as it has finalized delimitations of the constituencies across the country.

According to sources within the ECP, the commission has completed all delimitations and addressed all objections raised on them. “The delimitations for all national and provincial constituencies has been completed,” they said.

The ECP said that they were ready to hold general elections at any time in the country.

It is pertinent to mention here that the ECP has assured the Supreme Court of Pakistan that it would complete the delimitations by August 04 while hearing a suo moto regarding Deputy Speaker National Assembly Qasim Suri’s ruling, which was later overturned with a unanimous decision from the apex court.

Previously, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) said it is ready for the new elections by the end of October this year.
