Pakistan People’s Party in a letter to the chief election commissioner has complained violation of the election code of conduct against the prime minister.

Secretary General PPP, Nayyar Bukhari in his letter to the CEC said that the prime minister has announced allocation of development funds to the assembly members, which is breach of the election code of conduct.

Nayyar Bukhari has invited attention of the election commission chief towards the violate made by Prime Minister Imran Khan.

“PTI’s women legislators are saying that the prime minister has allocated to them 500 million rupees for development fund in their constituencies,” PPP central official said.

Bukhari has demanded of the election commission to act against the violation of the election code of conduct.

The lawmakers at the Parliament House and three provincial assemblies casting their votes through secret ballot for Senate elections to elect 37 seats.

The members of the National Assembly voting for electing two senate members from Islamabad, while the legislatures of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan will elect 12 senators each and the Sindh Assembly will send 11 senators to the upper house of the parliament.

It is to be mentioned here that 11 senators have already returned uncontested from Punjab.

Karachi Kings’ Imad Wasim has won the toss and decided to bowl first against Peshawar Zalmi in the 13th fixture of the ongoing Pakistan Super League (PSL) season six.

Meanwhile, Zalmi is without its regular skipper Wahab Riaz as he is suffering from a niggle in his back. Veteran Shoaib Malik is leading Zalmi in today’s game.

Kings have made one change, Abbas Afridi replaces Waqas Maqsood while Zalmi has made three changes. Imam-ul-Haq, Mujeen-ur-Rehman, Wahab miss out, Ammad Butt, Mohammad Irfan, Ravi Bopara comes in.

Karachi Kings: Babar Azam, Sharjeel Khan, Colin Ingram, Joe Clarke (wk), Mohammad Nabi, Dan Christian, Imad Wasim, Mohammad Ilyas, Abbas Afridi, Mohammad Amir, Arshad Iqbal.

Fawad said that the PPP tried to buy votes but doesn’t regret resorting to such tactics.

He expressed the hope that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) will take action over a leaked video involving the opposition’s candidate from Islamabad, former prime minister Yousuf Raza Gilani’s son purportedly buying votes.

A video clip surfaced the other day showing the PPP leader purportedly asking the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) MNAs to “sell their vote”. Ali Haider Gillani was also telling the PTI lawmakers how to waste their Senate votes.

While addressing a press conference along with PPP MNA Shazia Marri, the PPP leader Haider Gillani accepted that he had met with PTI lawmakers last week to discuss things related to Senate polls.

“I met with PTI MNAs and told them how to waste their votes. The MNAs from PTI are also my friends and I did nothing wrong,” he told the media, adding that he will meet them again on their wish.

With high-stakes polling for the 37 Senate seats underway, Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed has hoped that the ruling PTI’s candidate on a Senate seat from Islamabad Dr. Abdul Hafeez Sheikh would win the contest.

Speaking to the media after casting his vote at the National Assembly, he took a dig at the 11-party alliance Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) saying they band together whenever elections are around. Their so-called allaince won’t last long, he said.“These people won’t pull off any surprise. Political death writ large on their faces,” the minister said. They had bragged about ousting the government before the Senate elections and gave the impression that they have already won, he added.

It would have been better, if senators from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan had also been elected unopposed, Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed opined. He said people who lose election doesn’t accept defeat.

Federal Minister Faisal Vawda tendered his resignation from the National Assembly after casting his vote in the Senate election.

The counsel of Vawda informed the Islamabad High Court (IHC) about Vawda’s resignation from the assembly, which was hearing a disqualification petition against the Federal Water Resources Minister.

An IHC bench comprising of Justice Aamir Farooq hearing a petition seeking disqualification of the PTI leader as member of the National Assembly.

The court reserved its verdict in the disqualification case.

Earlier, the minister’s counsel submitted a copy of the resignation of Faisal Vawda from the lower house of the parliament.

The counsel also said that the resignation letter was duly signed by the Speaker and the petition against him becomes ineffective against him after resignation from the NA seat.

The high court bench had summoned the MNAs record from the election commission in previous hearing of the case.

The counsel had pleaded to the court that the Election Commission of Pakistan had not de-notified Faisal Vawda.

Barrister Jahangir Khan Jadoon, the counsel for petitioner Mian Muhammad Faisal, alleged that Faisal Vawda lied in the June 11, 2018 affidavit he submitted to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) before the 2018 elections that he had given up his dual nationality.

He said the minister was an American national at that time but he fibbed in the affidavit, adding he held the US citizenship even when his nomination papers were being scrutinised.

The petitions seek Vawda’s removal from the public office under clause 62-1 (F) of the constitution
