Islamabad, The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is in the process of hearing petitions from candidates across forty constituencies, addressing concerns related to the recent election results for the National Assembly and the four Provincial Assemblies. This move comes as part of the ECP’s efforts to ensure transparency and fairness in the electoral process.

According to Ministry of Information and Broadcasting, the petitions under review highlight various grievances concerning the outcomes in these constituencies. To facilitate a thorough examination of these issues, the ECP has initiated a special cell within its Islamabad headquarters dedicated to the registration of complaints.

This step by the ECP underscores the commission’s commitment to resolving electoral disputes and reinforcing the integrity of Pakistan’s democratic framework. The establishment of the complaint registration cell is expected to streamline the process for addressing candidates’ concerns, potentially impacting the political landscape across multiple regions.

The hearings are a critical component of the ECP’s mandate to oversee electoral processes, ensuring that any discrepancies or disputes are judiciously examined and resolved in accordance with the law.
