Suspension of mobile services on poll day created hindrance in transfer of data: ECP​

The ECP has said the suspension of mobile services on February 8 created some hindrances in the sending of electronic data by presiding officers.

The caretaker government had suspended cellular services on poll day owing to security concerns. It later stated that the decision was not easy but was taken to prevent any security mishaps.

In a statement today, ECP said the move had severely affected coordination and transport of election material.

The electoral watchdog highlighted that the first result of the 2024 election was received at 2am compared to the 2018 election result which was received at 4am.

“Except for some constituencies, the results of the elections were completed within one and a half days,” the statement said. “The delay in results in some constituencies did not benefit or harm any specific political party,” the ECP concluded.
 

Lawyer Jibran Nasir says over 30 petitions filed in SHC against ‘malicious tabulation’ of poll results​

Lawyer and activist Jibran Nasir has said that more than 30 petitions have been filed in the Sindh High Court (SHC) by his panel “Safeguard Karachi’s Vote” against the “malicious tabulation” of electoral results.

Speaking to the media in Karachi, Nasir said 17 PTI-backed candidates were being supported by the panel, adding that all candidates had similar pleas of malicious tabulation by returning officers misrepresenting the total count of Form 45 in Form 47.

In a post on X, Nasir said the SHC had given the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) till 11am tomorrow to come up with a “lawful and reasonable solution” to the issue.

He said the SHC has cautioned the ECP to not insist on any “flawed results” and to notify the returned candidates as soon as possible otherwise the court would be forced to intervene.
