"General elections in Pakistan to be held in Jan 2024, says ECP" can be summarized as: "ECP announces Pakistan's upcoming general elections scheduled for January 2024."
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has revealed that the upcoming general elections in the country are scheduled for the final week of January 2024. This announcement follows demands from various political parties, including the Pakistan Peoples Party, for the ECP to provide a specific election date.
Elections in Pakistan, originally set for November following the dissolution of the National Assembly by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's outgoing government on August 9, have been postponed to next year. The delay is due to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) conducting new constituency delimitations based on a recent digital census. The ECP plans to release the initial list of delimited constituencies on September 27 and the final list on November 30, with the general elections now scheduled for the last week of January.
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) recently disclosed that the country's voter count has surged by 22 million compared to 2018. As of July 25, 2023, the updated "province-wise voter statistics" indicated a total of 126.9 million voters, up from 105.95 million in 2018. This increase is notable among both male and female voters, with male voters rising from 59.22 million to 68.50 million and female voters increasing from 46.73 million to 58.47 million over the same period.
