The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Friday imposed a complete ban over advertisements in print and electronic media bearing any political party logo, name, images of party leaders and advertisements that directly or indirectly promote any political party or candidate and issued directives to the federal and provincial governments to ensure its implementation in letter and spirit.
According to the ECP notification it had been noted with concern by the ECP that as the forthcoming elections were approaching, there were frequent advertisements appearing in the print and electronic media which highlighted the achievements of the incumbent federal and provincial governments and that these advertisements with party symbols were being used to promote political parties by placing party symbols and images of party leaders therein. It stated that such advertisements should not promote party interests at the expense of public money and thus these were against the norm of level playing field, which could not be allowed to continue as it would amount to misuse the resources from the public exchequer for their self-interest.
ECP bars print, electronic media ads backing parties
So now PPPP and PMLN wont be able to do pre poll rigging on State expense !!
or atleast we wont see that big advertisements with the retard faces of Nawaz sharif and Nusrat Bhutto wagera !!!
