Caretaker Prime Minister Anwaar-ul-Haq Kakar has said that despite numerous challenges, the best possible arrangements have been made to ensure peaceful and seamless conduct of elections on polling day, state-run Radio Pakistan reports.

He passed these remarks during an interaction with the Commonwealth Observer Group in Islamabad.

PM Kakar said Pakistan was proud to honour its commitment as a Commonwealth member state by inviting independent international observers to witness the electoral process.

He further highlighted the caretaker government had fulfilled its responsibilities to run the day-to-day affairs of the state and create a conducive environment ahead of the elections. Now it is the turn of the people of Pakistan to exercise their democratic right to vote, the premier added.
