More than 300 political parties might not be able to compete in upcoming elections

Under the Election Act, more than 300 political parties might not be able to compete in the elections next year. According to some sources, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam, Balochistan National Party, JUI(S) will not be able to compete in next election due to incomplete details of their parties submitted to the Election Commission of Pakistan.

Almost 11 percent of the parties got authorization. This means out of 352 registered parties almost 38 parties have submitted details about their party and paid deposit fees of Rs. 200,000.

Amongst these 38 parties are Awami National Party (ANP), Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and Pakistan People’s Party Parliamentarians (PPPP).

Recently, Lahore High Court issued notices on an appeal challenging the Elections Act, 2017 to the Election Commission and federal government.

The appeal which was filed by Habib Akram states that the statute provides a way for politicians to hide details in the nomination papers about their loans, dual nationalities and assets.
