ISLAMABAD: Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Monday issued a reminder to the Ministry of Interior seeking clarification on the legal status of the Milli Muslim League (MML).
The ECP in a hearing expressed its displeasure over not submitting a reply to the commission on the matter by the ministry and ordered to get a reply from the interior secretary within 15 days.
The ECP said that the MML was not registered with the commission and that it has no legal status and the commission didn’t allot election symbol to this party.
It said that the commission had written a letter to the interior ministry on August 24, 2017, in which an explanation was sought from the ministry on the matter, including the legal status of such party; however, the ministry has yet to submit its reply, it added.
