Chief Election Commissioner former justice Fakhruddin G Ebrahim on Thursday said that the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) was ready to hold local bodies' election. Talking to media persons here at the Lahore High Court, he said that it happened first time in the country that power was transferred from one democratic government to another.
He said that some mistakes might have been committed in electoral process, but they were not made deliberately. For the first time, the turnout was 60 percent and women in large numbers also exercised their right to vote, he added. Replying to a question regarding Imran Khan's allegations, he said that it was possible that negligence might have taken place in some constituencies. If anybody had complaint then he should approach election tribunals, which were authorised to order re-polling, he added.
