In a dramatic turn of events, newly-appointed Commissioner Rawalpindi, Saif Anwar Jhappa, vehemently denied all allegations leveled by his predecessor, Liaquat Ali Chattha.

Hours after Chattha's shocking confession of involvement in rigging the February 8 elections and his subsequent resignation, Jhappa held a press conference at the DC office on Saturday to address the situation.

Contrary to Chattha's claims, Commissioner Saif Anwar Jhappa, who has taken over the position, insisted that Election 2024 was transparent. He asserted that the commissioner's role was solely one of coordination.

At the press conference, Jhappa was accompanied by the District Returning Officers (DROs) of all four districts under Rawalpindi Division – Hasan Waqar Cheema (Rawalpindi), Qurtaul Ain (Chakwal), Rao Atif Raza (Attock), and Captain Sami (Jhelum).

JI smells a rat in 2024 elections​

Feb 19, 01:03
Amid the uncertainty as to who will become the prime minister, Jamaat-e-Islami (JI) chief Sirajul Haq has said that the government should be given to the one who has been given the mandate by the people.

“In the world, first elections are held and then the government is formed, but Pakistan is the only country where the government is formed first and then the elections are held,” Siraj said while holding a news conference on Sunday.

“After the elections, there is a peaceful atmosphere, but this is the only country where there is an increase in chaos after the elections,” he said, adding that in 1971, the country broke up due to non-recognition of the mandate, in 1977 martial law was imposed.

Siraj said that the result of the elections led to increased polarisation as the people decided one thing but the results were different.

The JI chief claimed that a government imposed by force would not last, as the 2024 election was the most polluted and infamous one because the census itself was incorrect.
 

MQM-P delegation set for crucial talks with PML-N​

Updated Feb 19, 00:47
A high-level delegation from the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) is scheduled to meet with the top leadership of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) in Islamabad on Monday (today), addressing a range of issues, with a particular focus on government formation.

The MQM delegation, comprising Senior Deputy Convener Syed Mustafa Kamal, Dr Farooq Sattar, and Governor Sindh Kamran Tessori, will engage with PML-N's negotiation committee.

Sources have revealed that discussions will revolve around crucial matters such as the formation of the government, the upcoming presidential election, the election of the speaker, and various other political concerns.

Although previous meetings between MQM and PML-N covered diverse topics, government formation was absent from the agenda. However, today’s meeting is expected to delve into this crucial aspect.

Notably, MQM and PML-N have already found common ground on several significant issues well before the elections.

Sources indicate that while MQM has initiated talks with PML-N in Islamabad, the door remains open for other political parties. As of now, there have been no discussions with any other party regarding government formation.

The negotiation teams from MQM and PML-N are anticipated to present their final opinions on key matters, including government formation. Subsequently, the top leadership of both parties will make decisions based on these recommendations.
