Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam—Fazl (JUI-F) Senator Kamran Murtaza has called the Senate’s attention towards the “situation arising from recently held elections in the country”.

In a calling attention notice submitted to the Senate, a copy of which is available with Dawn.com, he raised the following concerns:

  1. How did the election commission (ECP), the caretaker government and other institutions conduct the elections in the country?
  2. Were the election results according to the public’s expectations?
  3. How many political parties accepted the election results?
  4. What situation has arisen in the country after the release of the poll results?

Senator Murtaza asserted that a debate should be held in the upper house so that “no political or economic crisis arises in the coming days”, and that a solution could be found.
