The Election Commission of Pakistan — often referred to by its abbreviation ECP — is a constitutionally empowered, autonomous body responsible for holding general, local body and by-elections.
In the absence of an elected government, when a caretaker setup is in place, the ECP also serves as the ratifier of bureaucratic decisions and arbitrator of disputes.
The just solution lies in India addressing the issue through a trilateral dialogue involving the legitimate representatives of the Kashmiri people and Pakistan.
