\nThe petition filed by a citizen against notification on new delimitation of constituencies came up for hearing before single bench of LHC led by Justice Abid Aziz Sheikh Thursday.
\nDuring the hearing of the case Justice Abid Aziz Sheikh remarked holding election in 90 days is a constitutional requirement. There should be efforts that election takes place within 90 days. I am issuing notice to Election Commission (EC) on the date of election. If the population census had taken place in June then why it was not approved till 2 months. Reply to this question should come.
\nThe counsel for federal government said new delimitation of constituencies within four months is next to impossible.
