ISLAMABAD: Conducting fair and transparent elections in the country is the prime responsibility of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), said Federal Minister for Science and Technology Fawad Chaudhry on Sunday.
Chaudhry in a post on Twitter said that eliminating corrupt practices during the polls is the constitutional mandate of the ECP.
آئین کے آرٹیکل 218(3) میں honest، فیئر، فری، قانون کے مطابق الیکشن organise اور کنڈکٹ کرنا الیکشن کمیشن کی ذمہ داری، کرپٹ پریکٹس روکنا آئینی مینڈیٹ۔ سپریم کورٹ کا حکم بھی تھا مگر ٹیکنولوجی استعمال نہ ہوئی۔ وزیراعظم کا آئینی موقف مانا جاتا تو الیکشن process پر کوئی سوال نہ اٹھتا۔
