PTI central leader Shah Mehmood Qureshi has said Election Commission (EC) is a constitutional institution and its basic responsibility is holding transparent election.

He said this while reacting to EC statement here Tuesday.
“I read statement from the EC in the news papers. The EC has stated the reasons in its statement on why he cannot hold general election in 90 days. Election commission is a constitutional institution and its basic responsibility is holding election in transparent and fair manner.

A tense situation prevails in the country, he held. Prime Minister is authorized to propose to dissolve the assemblies at any time and can go to new election. If it is so then why EC is not prepared. EC is getting salary of what job.

I being a Pakistani citizen question EC if you can not discharge your constitutional obligation then why are you holding the office.

The country is passing through an uncertain situation. On one hand there is instability in Afghanistan and on the other hand India is undermining peace in the region by firing accidental missile. It is not in the interest of Pakistan to allow uncertain situation to prevail in the country.

Stern notice of the EC statement should be taken, he held.
