Bilawal Criticizes ‘Fleeing Allies’ in a Jab at PDM Amid Election Controversy

Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari expressed his discontent with the stance of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), a former ally, regarding the forthcoming general elections.

During a speech at a water filtration plant inauguration event in Hyderabad, he accused the PML-N of retreating from the imminent polls, emphasizing that his “allies” are not in favour of conducting the elections within the constitutionally mandated 90 days.

Bilawal highlighted that the PML-N had previously suggested to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) that the elections should be scheduled after the new census-based constituency delimitations are completed, an approach that exceeds the 90-day timeframe. This comes shortly after Bilawal reaffirmed his party’s position on adhering to the 90-day constitutional limit post the dissolution of assemblies.

Chairman Pakistan People's Party @BBhuttoZardari says that if the general elections will not be held in 90 days, then at least it should be told when the same are going to be held.

Differences Within PPP on Election Scheduling

Interestingly, a divergence in opinion regarding the election date has surfaced within the PPP itself. Asif Ali Zardari, the co-chairman of the PPP, seems to align with the PML-N’s perspective, endorsing the idea of new delimitations based on the recent census data, which would potentially extend the election date beyond the 90-day constitutional deadline.

Nevertheless, Bilawal dismissed his father’s viewpoint as a “personal opinion”, underscoring his commitment to the PPP Central Executive Committee’s (CEC) resolution to adhere to the 90-day electoral timeframe.

The road to the forthcoming elections has been marked by significant controversies, primarily revolving around the redrawing of constituencies based on the 7th Population and Housing Census 2023, which was approved unanimously during a Council of Common Interest (CCI) meeting held by the coalition government before the assemblies were dissolved.

Following this, the ECP laid out a comprehensive timeline for the delimitation process, which seems to extend beyond the November 9th, 90-day constitutional deadline, hinting that the elections might not occur until after this period. The new schedule announced by the ECP details various stages of the delimitation process, from September 8 to December 14, including the allocation of constituency quotas and the resolution of objections about the newly demarcated constituencies.

With the proposed electoral date fast approaching and the complex processes surrounding the delimitations still underway, it appears the nation is set for a heated debate on the possible postponement of the general elections past the constitutionally defined deadline.
