The development came a day after President Alvi announced April 30 as the date for elections in Punjab.

“President Dr Arif Alvi has announced to hold general elections of Punjab Assembly on April 30, Sunday,” tweeted the President’s office.

“The decision was made by the president after considering the dates proposed by the Election Commission of Pakistan,” it added.

The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had proposed Punjab election date between April 30 and May 7 in a letter written to President Arif Alvi.
