The Election Commission of Pakistan on Saturday issued instructions to reject all nomination papers of candidates who displayed weapons publicly, including Nawabshah.
The Election Commission has banned display of weapons but still many candidates’ supporters bring heavy weapons to offices of district returning officers in Nawabshah Sessions Court, violating the ban.
A similar situation had been observed in many other cities during nomination papers’ filing.
The ECP has taken quick and serious action over violation of ban on weapons’ display and issued instructions to all offices to reject candidates’ nomination papers who were involved in arms’ display.
