EC to meet on June 8 to fix fresh date for Parliamentary polls
The National Election Commission is set to convene on Monday (8) to decide on the date to conduct the Parliamentary Election, an official from the Commission said. The Commission which met today received the health guidelines pertaining to holding the general elections from the Health Ministry.
The Election Commission convened today after the Supreme Court dismissed the Fundamental Rights (FR) petitions challenging the dissolution of the previous Parliament yesterday.
The three member Commission also informed the Courts earlier that it was not possible to hold elections on June 20, a date fixed by the Commission which was challenged by another FR petition citing the current coronavirus crisis in the country. The Court was told by the Commission that it would take at least 9-11 weeks to hold the elections considering the current COOVID-19 situation.
