After seeking the Commission’s response on the issue of timely elections, the ECP is set to report to the Supreme Court. The development comes a day after the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) said it sought assurances that there was no question of postponing the general elections scheduled for the last week of January 2024.
The ECP’s statement comes after President Arif Alvi cast doubt on the timing of elections in the cash-strapped country. In an interview to a news channel, Alvi said that he does not see elections being held in January next year and has made several ‘efforts’ including writing a letter to the ECP.
The ECP had earlier said that the polls would be held in the last week of January, but refused to give an exact date despite demands from political parties.
