ISLAMABAD: While the government has already legislated through the 26th amendment to keep the serving Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikandar Sultan Raja till the appointment of next CEC, the PTI has approached National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq to initiate the process for appointment of new CEC as the incumbent’s tenure will end in 10 days.
In a letter to the National Assembly speaker, Leader of the Opposition Omar Ayub Khan has demanded formation of a parliamentary committee for appointing the next CEC.
