Amidst the recent changes in election symbols by the High Courts, there is a looming possibility of election postponement in the affected constituencies.
Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja chaired a meeting to deliberate on the High Courts’ decisions altering the election symbols.
Insider information reveals that, during the meeting, it was highlighted that the ballot paper printing process has commenced. The electoral watchdog is grappling with time constraints, and altering election symbols at this stage poses challenges in completing the necessary arrangements promptly.
While the Commission announced the initiation of ballot paper printing nationwide, sources indicate a potential scenario where the Election Commission of Pakistan might consider delaying elections in constituencies affected by High Courts' decisions on symbol changes.
