ISLAMABAD: Chief Census Commissioner Asif Bajwa said Wednesday that final results of the population census would be issued in April or May next year.
While briefing reporters, he said that results of circle level census would be handed over to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) after the passage of a constitutional amendment by the parliament, so that the commission would be able to revise the constituencies in accordance with the new census results.
Bajwa said the results of the census at the tehsil and district levels have been issued. He said that a special briefing had been scheduled for Thursday, where politicians and officials from Balochistan would provide details regarding the fresh census.
He further said that the next elections in 2018 would be conducted on the basis of the final census results, adding that the process would be finalised well before the completion of the tenure of the present assemblies.
