The Supreme Court (SC) is expected to hear the case related to the general elections on Friday۔
Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja appeared before the SC today, where he had a crucial meeting with Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa. Attorney General Mansoor Usman Awan was also present during the meeting.
On this occasion, SC Justices Sardar Tariq Masood and Justice Ijaz ul Ahsan were also present.
Following the meeting, Attorney General Mansoor Usman Awani left the SC premises.
The ECP on Thursday announced that it has successfully finalised all arrangements for the upcoming elections scheduled for February 8.
ECP’s statement comes in response to allegations made by the Chairman of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), which the commission dismissed as a failed attempt to mislead the public.
However, the electoral watchdog in its statement emphasised that the appointment of District Returning Officers (DROs) and Returning Officers (ROs) had been successfully executed, and training sessions for these officials were underway nationwide.
Addressing the controversy surrounding the appointment of DROs and ROs, the ECP also acknowledged PTI’s challenge to the appointments.
