ISLAMABAD: In a meeting of the political strategy committee Tuesday, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf called for reconstitution of the Election Commission of Pakistan.


The meeting, chaired by Chairman Imran Khan, expressed concern over the ECP’s failure to implement the Supreme Court’s orders regarding delimitation and voter verification in Karachi.


It also demanded the resignation of President Asif Ali Zardari saying as co-chairman of the PPP the president could not be impartial in his role of overseeing the elections.


The meeting discussed the prevalent political situation in the country and the party’s contacts with other likeminded political forces for possible alliance and seat-adjustments for the upcoming elections.


Makhdoom Javed Hashmi and PTI Vice Chairman Makhdoom Shah Mahmood Qureshi briefed the committee on the political contacts made with different political parties in this regard.


The meeting reiterated its stance that the PTI was ready to talk with all those political parties which are not part of federal or provincial governments.
