Pakistan’s Supreme Court Schedules Hearing for 90-Day Election Plea

The Supreme Court of Pakistan is set to hear petitions on October 23 (Monday), advocating for the country’s elections to be conducted within 90 days.

Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa’s recent indications of the apex court’s willingness to address pleas for the timely execution of elections following the interim government’s installation in August.

A three-member judicial panel, presided over by Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa, Justice Athar Minullah and Justice Aminuddin Khan, will deliberate on the petitions.

The Supreme Court Bar Association and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) underscore the imperative of adhering to constitutional mandates for prompt electoral proceedings. The PTI has publicly commended the Supreme Court’s initiative, expressing concern over constitutional deviations negatively impacting citizen-state dynamics.

Anticipation for Constitutional Adherence

In a public communication, the PTI highlighted the constitution’s centrality in defining the interrelations between the governance structures and the populace, further emphasizing its role in national stability and progress. The party referenced the Supreme Court’s comprehensive interpretation from April 4, 2023, of the constitutional clause necessitating elections within a 90-day framework. There is an expectant hope that the court’s bench will expedite the hearings, recognizing the time-sensitive nature and constitutional obligations of timely electoral conduct.

In preceding sessions, Chief Justice Isa alluded to the court’s inclination to consider pleas advocating prompt elections and opposing civilian trials in military courts. This stance surfaced during dialogues postponing a separate case hearing, signalling an impending docket of challenging cases awaiting the Supreme Court’s attention.

Following the dissolution of the National Assembly and provincial assemblies initiated by the Shehbaz Sharif administration, elections were anticipated within 90 days. However, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) deferred the polls, citing the need for new delimitations based on the recent census. This delay has sparked legal appeals to the Supreme Court, with petitioners pressing for adherence to the 90-day electoral timeline stipulated in the constitution. These appeals, pending since the term of the former chief justice, are now moving forward, marking a critical juncture in Pakistan’s electoral and judicial landscape.
