Financial transparency: Barring PTI, all major parties file details of assets
ISLAMABAD:
Except for Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), almost all the major political parties have submitted statements of their accounts to Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), as the last date for filing such details expired on Thursday.
A total of 45 parties have submitted details of their assets, including all mainstream parties with the exception of the PTI, an ECP official told The Express Tribune.
The PTI leadership, in a letter, has sought time from the ECP for filing statement of accounts, the official said, adding that the party has said it could not consolidate assets details in time due to hectic election-related activities.
Interestingly there are over 230 political parties registered with the ECP; however, most of them are one-man show parties with no formal organisation.
Every political party has to submit to the Election Commission, within 60 days from the close of each financial year, a consolidated statement of accounts of the party, duly audited by a Chartered Accountant, says the Article 13 of the Political Parties Order, 2002.
The last date for filing statement of accounts falls on August 29 every year. The provision was added to the election laws during Musharrafs military regime in an attempt to bring transparency to the electoral system.
Under the law, a political party can contest elections only if it has been filing its yearly statements of accounts regularly and has submitted a certificate that it had gone through intra-party elections.
According to Article 14, a party, which fails to submit its statement of accounts, will not be eligible to obtain election symbol for contesting elections.
After the May 11 general elections it is the first time the political parties have filed details of their assets.
ECP notifies winners of August 22 by-polls
The ECP has announced the names of the winners in the August 22 by-polls.
Except for the two National Assembly constituencies, where results have been withheld on reports that women had been barred from casting their votes, the unofficial results for the rest of the 13 NA seats have been made public.
Among the 26 provincial assembly constituencies that went for by-polls, the ECP has ordered recounting of votes in PP-150 Lahore. The results for the rest of the constituencies have been announced.
But, the official notification of the winners is issued once the candidates fulfill all legal provisions including filing details of their election expenses to the election authorities.

Imran Khan warns of mass protests if justice denied to PTI | PAKISTAN - geo.tv
LAHORE: Chairman Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Imran Khan, Thursday threatened countrywide protests if the constitutional and legal channels denied justice to his party, Geo News reported.
Addressing a ceremony here in Samanabad, Khan said that those who rigged the polls to come to power could not keep even a single promise they made earlier.
Tell me, what a government, which failed to end load shedding within the promised period of six months, will do in the next five years. Nothing, said he.
He also added how could those whose own hoards of money were deposited in foreign bank accounts dare to repatriate President Asif Ali Zardari's millions of dollars from Switzerland.
"They are following "you scratch my back, I scratch your back" principle" as there is always honour among thieves, said Khan.
Imran Khan further said that an independent judiciary was the cornerstone of a strong democracy, but in the same breath lamented that the law was treating Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf differently.

This guy has really impressed me...actually the most impressing PTI person in NA...Imran Khan only made one speech...Shah Mehmood and Javed Hashmi were a bit less emotional as well and a bit reserved...but this guy is really top notch, excellent thinker.
Now waiting for Asad Umar!
Murad Saeed is another brilliant boy.
Now coming to the video, I agree that FATA need to be incorporated into the mainstream immediately. They have a BIG majority, PTI would support them, so will ANP and perhaps JUI.
Make FATA a province and give them a proper name and abolish FCR.
Stop rating them as third line citizens of Pakistan.

I'm also really impressed by him, been following him since election campaign. He has a bright future in Pakistan Politics and we need lots of similar new faces in NA.
Absolutely agreed, making FATA a province will be a great move to bring them in mainstream and promote political system there.
