ISLAMABAD, March 5: The Election Commission on Wednesday asked candidates who lost the elections to file complaints within 45 days of the gazette notification.
Election Commission’s Secretary Kanwar Mohammad Dilshad said that the Chief Election Commissioner would refer only ‘fit for trial’ petitions to election tribunals.
He said that petitions should contain “a precise statement of the material facts on which the petitioner relies and full particulars of any corrupt or illegal practice or other illegal acts alleged to have been committed, along with names of parties alleged to have committed such … practice and the date and place of the commission of such practice together with relief claimed by the petitioner.
“Every petition … is to be signed by the petitioner and verified on oath,” he said.
