President Alvi announces April 9 as Punjab, KP election date

[Pakstallion]

All debates aside, needing elections within 90 days is clear in constitution. This is a fact.

 

[Olympus81]

All these debates regarding a slamdunk provision of 90 days election post dissolving of assemblies is just futile.

We all know which bamboo is up ECP’s behind that’s making them do mental gymnastics. Be man enough and say we wont hold elections in 90 days, f**k it.

 

[Dalit]

Good move.

Some legal experts on TV are saying even for provincial assemblies ...anyways this will go to SC and in my opinion SC will force ECP to give the date in April itself. Eithers way, there is no escape for PDM now unless Hafiz sb decides to come on TV "mere pyarey humwatonon"

No need, if they can force them to open the courts at 12 at night, sepoys can protect their PDM babies just as easily. And thus far Hafiz sahab hasn't shown any indication that he's a departure from Haji's doctrine.

Well next move will be to install maryum on Punjab for 5 yrs.
First openly rigged elections coming up in Pakistan after a very long time in areas outside rural sindh

Hafiz sahab can simply call supreme court and it will happen

If not the back plan is RTS failure with maryum winning every where with 2/3 majority

what a twist in Pakistani politics.. wasnt bhutto also removed in April ?

 

[Sal12]

Its a good news. But who will implement this order.

 

[N.Siddiqui]

The president have the power it's mostly about wielding and exerting it, and with SC, HC also firm in holding to the constitution, the PDM mafia is caught in a difficult situation.

Establishment looks to be divided.

One game pdm can play is to force ECP chairman resign from his post which will create another crisis.

Election can not be late more than 90 days

What is stopping PDM from fixing the elections like the ones in Karachi?

 

[N.Siddiqui]

Ev

What is stopping PDM from fixing the elections like the ones in Karachi?

Even with fixing PTI won 15 seats out of the 20 seats in the Punjab by elections after the lotas were disqualified.

Only to some extent with lower turnout it can be fixed, with people charged and higher turnout it cannot be fixed to win.

Now the turnout would be higher.

on 9 April all the scores will be settled "sood samait". IA

 

[PakAlp]

How comes PTI government wants provisional elections when they were already in power in Punjab and KPK assemblies. First they dissolve the assemblies, loose power and now want new elections so they can win again.
