Playing with Local government elections in KPK is a bad taste




Local government elections in KPK: Is it Another lie of Imran Khan

Playing with Local government elections in KPK is a bad taste

PTI was one of the parties that had promised to devolve powers to local bodies within 90 days of coming to power – but it has been struggling to keep that promise. He did that promise in a press conference at lhore at 24 April 2013. If PPP and PML nawaz did not hold LG polls than PTI's performance is also nil in this regard. Gulu media will not show what IK said at April same year and what he told in June 2014. Like General Ayub till Musharaf why rulers love to play with LG issue.  In the absence of Bio metric system and census what will be new in election process? So i think the statement of Ik regarding LG elction is a trick for sure.
Imran Khan and his camp follower chief Minister of KPK announced that elections of local bodies in KPK will be held in November 2014.   Is it a diversion to finish Dharna? As usual gulu media ignored this announcement. Is it  a usual trick of Ik ? Or face saving? If IK is really interested in local government elections than just explain Who will conduct these elections? Same election commission? which is as par dhrna people a corrupt commission? What it means? Do you have new voter list as par census? Did KPK government purchased bio metric machines? One should remember that in March same year, KPK government gave reasons in Supreem Court regarding delay in election of LG and it was explained in court that in next 5 months KPK will have bio metric machines but no progress recorded.   instead of raising the voice for purchasing bio metric system KPK government involved in Dhrnas.
"Moreover, the K-P government and the election commission are not on the same page on the use of the biometric system either. ECP wants to use this technology in limited constituencies as a pilot project to test its results. However, PTI insists on using the biometric machines to verify the identity of voters all over the province.
“The local bodies’ elections will not be possible before June or July if we have to use the biometric verification devices,” an official of ECP’s IT department categorically stated."
