Imran Khan |  Pakistan’s Supreme Court expects political parties to agree to hold general elections and provincial polls on the same day

 


Pakistan’s Supreme Court expects the country’s warring political parties to reach consensus on holding general elections and provincial polls for all legislatures on the same day to end polarization within the regime , a news outlet reported on Tuesday.

“It is commendable that the country’s political leaders have made efforts to resolve the current political impasse. Political issues can be best addressed through dialogue and consensus,” said a written order issued by a panel of three judges headed by Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial on Monday.

The bench was hearing a petition to hold elections for all assemblies on the same day.

We therefore expect the political parties in the country to heal the polarization in the political system and to arrive at a single date for the holding of general elections to all constitutional assemblies,” the bench said in its order.

According to the order, Khawaja Saad Rafique – who represented the government – told the supreme court that the negotiations between the government and the Pakistani party Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) led by former Prime Minister Imran Khan were productive and that an agreement had been reached on the holding of general elections for the National Assembly and four provincial assemblies on the same day.

He added that if negotiations are allowed to continue, a consensus could be reached on a specific date for the holding of general elections. He said Shah Mahmood Qureshi, PTI, however, expressed regret over the lack of progress made during the negotiations and was desperate that any useful purpose would be served by continuing the talks with the government.

Speaking to The Express Tribune newspaper, a senior government official said that despite the supreme court’s wish, the federal government led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, who is also the chairman of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N ), is unwilling to engage with the beleaguered PTI on the issue of general elections.

Former Prime Minister Khan’s PTI dissolved the Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provincial assemblies in January this year, hoping the move would force the ruling alliance to dissolve other legislatures and prompt it to hold elections. within 90 days.

However, this did not happen as talks on deciding a polling date between the government and the Khan-led PTI party did not yield results.

Khan demanded elections as the government repeatedly objected to holding snap polls or holding polls for the national and provincial legislatures separately, citing a lack of security, funds and new census results .

Even the intervention of the Supreme Court could not lead to elections in the provinces of Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa where interim governments are functioning even after the expiration of their 90-day terms.
