The Consensual Thinking for a Common Date

A much-awaited decision by the judges of the Supreme Court in pursuance to an application submitted to the Supreme Court (SC) by PTI came out today after a lot of deliberations and threadbare discussions with a ratio of 3 to 2. The SC decides on an election in KP and Punjab within 90 days. Unambiguously it says the provincial governments in both provinces shall assist help and provide funds for holding elections.

An election is an essential part of parliamentary democracy. Without the elections, the whole process would mean nothing. The Governor for not announcing the date in KPK did violate the provisions of the constitution. Clause no. 13 clearly states about the Governor for not having observed his inherent obligation by virtue of his position.

The President’s order about holding of elections in Punjab was valid and according to the provisions of law.

The particular decision is being confounded by Azam Tarar in a bid to undo this historic judgement made by the judges of the SC. Those who reused themselves and the other two are being dubbed as the ones in the majority to foil the judgement.

Pakistan: a victim of the mediocratic and the cartels

President Alvi is vindicated and stands taller after the decision which is generally being hailed by the masses.

Thus it becomes a reported case for future references. The spirit of democracy was marred by certain opposing forces. The election Commission after this judgement convened a meeting to go ahead with this important mission. They will now in turn talk to the president and the Governor of KPK.

A judgement arrives to the utter surprise of PTI and the masses. In these compelling circumstances, even the election commission shied away from performing its duty.

According to Supreme Court, this served as a staggering blow to PDM which doesn’t seem to be quite interested in elections.

The assembly of KPK was dissolved by the governor. He was obligated to announce the date himself.

On a question that when you have moved an application in the High Court then there is no chance. According to Ali Zafar there is a precedent already in the case of Nawaz Sharif, when there were no petitions moved in the High Court yet he took a recourse to the Supreme Court, hence the judgement favouring Nawaz Sharif.

Imran’s point is proven, but for the collective good of the country, all stakeholders must join together again. Yet they must come up with one single date for holding General elections in the country. This may save people, particularly the expatriates, from making multiple trips to Pakistan.

Also, one more thing to avoid any untoward incident which may threaten to cause harm or bring any kind of injury to Imran Khan, he must therefore be granted bail in all the present cases and those that can be potentially made against him in future. We do have a precedence, as in the case of Late Ch. Zahur Elahi. When Ch. sahib was dragged frivolously into court to pressure him endlessly. The honourable justice of the High Court compassionately granted Ch. Zahoor Elahi a blanket bail in the previous cases and all the future cases if there might have been one.

We hail the decision of the honourable judges, it means putting an arm to the wheel, and putting the wheel in motion. Where uncertainty prevailed in ominously gruesome politically gridlocked inert masses.
