PESHAWAR: Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Information Adviser Barrister Saif on Thursday accused Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja of turning the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) into a political entity.
In a statement, Saif criticized the ECP for delaying decisions and holding daily meetings without progress. He urged the commission to follow the Supreme Court’s orders by issuing notifications for the reserved seats to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) candidates.
Saif further accused the CEC of contempt of court and called for action against him under Article 6 of the Constitution.
He warned, “Political decisions made by state institutions are always disastrous for the country,” adding that the current government, referred to as the “Form-47 government,” had pushed institutions to the brink of destruction.
