Pakistan general elections date changed, to take place on Feb 8 instead of Feb 11, announces President

India TV News  

Pakistan President Arif Alvi has announced a change in the date for holding general elections in the country. The decision to change polling date came after Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja along with Attorney General Mansoor Usman Awan and four members of the electoral body met President Alvi to discuss the general elections date, the president's office said. Earlier, the Election Commission of Pakistan told the Supreme Court about February 11 date during a hearing of a set of petitions calling for holding elections within 90 days after the dissolution of the National Assembly and the provincial legislatures. A three-judge bench comprising Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa, Justice Amin-ud-Din Khan and Justice Athar Minallah took up the pleas moved by the Supreme Court Bar Association, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and others.
