Special Assistant to Prime Minister on Poverty Alleviation and Social Safety Faisal Karim Kundi on Tuesday urged that all political parties need to sit together to resolve issues and introduce electoral reforms for making the election results acceptable across the political divide.
Talking to a state news channel, Kundi said that ‘same date polls’ referring to holding elections simultaneously across the country had now become a major bone of contention which needed to be addressed with the consultation of all parties. “The political parties should set aside their differences to uphold democracy and protect its integrity through free, fair, and transparent elections,” he added.—INP
