ISLAMABAD: Senator Mushtaq Ahmed and Senator Tahir Bizenjo demanded a case against the Chief Election Commissioner for violating the constitution.
The Senate meeting was chaired by Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani, in which the motion to suspend the question period was presented by Leader of the Opposition Wasim Shehzad, which was approved. Later, the debate on general elections 2024 started in the Senate.
Action should be taken against the Chief Election Commissioner under Article 6, Senator Mushtaq
Speaking in the Senate, Jamaat-e-Islami Senator Mushtaq Ahmed demanded that a case of violation of the constitution and treason be prosecuted against the Chief Election Commissioner. He said that the Election Commission has committed treason by not conducting transparent elections. Action should be taken against the Chief Election Commissioner under Article 6 of violating the constitution.
Senator Mushtaq Ahmad said that drug mafia and Afghan National won in the election. Commissioner Rawalpindi Liaquat Chatta opened the door to the election. The election has pushed the country to a greater economic and political crisis. Those who rig the election are national criminals. Bullet has hijacked the ballot in the election.
He further said that Goli has kidnapped Parchi in the election. A few government servants took away the rights of the people behind closed doors. The Chief Election Commissioner should apologize and recover 50 billion from him. A judicial commission should be formed for a transparent investigation of the election. Freedom from the British was not achieved, so some government servants decide to enslave us in locked rooms.
Even after 75 years, the face of democracy in the country is crooked, Senator Tahir Bizenjo
Also, while speaking in the Senate, Senator Tahir Bizenjo said that it has been 75 years since the birth of the country, the face of democracy in the country is crooked. The scope of disagreement in the country is shrinking. History is crying out and saying, God, learn something, but no one is ready to learn. Believe it or not, you are repeating mistakes. All the elections held under the supervision of supervisors were controversial. This time the elections were the most controversial.
Senator Tahir Bizenjo said that real people’s representatives were defeated in Balochistan. Drug dealers, feudal lords were brought to the assemblies with the support of two major parties. Until the judiciary and the army do their work, the country will suffer crises. Did the judiciary have the right to take away the symbol of PTI? Will political and economic stability come as a result of such rigged elections?
He said that I demand that the Chief Election Commissioner should be arrested and prosecuted for violating the constitution. It is the last meeting, please release the production order of Ijaz Chaudhry.
One party was targeted in the elections, Syed Ali Zafar
Apart from this, Syed Ali Zafar while expressing his opinion on the elections said that a party was targeted. People were harassed, PTI leaders were arrested. PTI was not allowed to hold a single meeting during the election campaign. The PTI symbol was taken so that people could not vote.
He said that whatever happened in the elections, the people have given a clear decision. Believe it or not, the people gave a decision in favor of Imran Khan. In the elections, the youth proved that they stand with a hope. Fear was spread among the people so that they would not come out on election day. PTI candidates would not be allowed to campaign, arrests were made. A few days before the election, our election symbol was taken from us.
While expressing his views in the Senate session, he added that another stab was done a week before the elections. PTI Chairman was punished without trial. The PTI chairman’s lawyers were barred and the court assigned his own lawyers. They were not allowed to cross-examine. The trial had the opposite effect and people participated fully in the election. The people brought a revolution.
He said that when the pre-poll rigging failed, the post-poll came into view. The losing candidates were won by changing the votes. The people’s mandate was stolen. We need to look ahead but it is not that easy. Let the one who has been given the mandate by the people come. Submit a resolution today asking the Election Commission to return the stolen mandate.
People’s mandate was stolen in the elections, Senator Shafiq Tareen
Senator Shafiq Tareen said that the mandate of the people has been stolen. Araoz has rigged the election. The government spent 50 billion rupees of the people on the election. The recent elections are pre-plan elections. The parties which are in majority should be allowed to form the government.
Senator Ejaz Chaudhry’s production order resolution
During the meeting, Barrister Ali Zafar presented a resolution in the Senate regarding the issuance of production order of PTI’s Center Ijaz Chaudhry. The resolution was signed by 24 centers of all political parties.
We do not have a happy history of elections, Senator Irfan Siddiqui
PML-N’s Irfan Siddiqui, while speaking in the Senate, said that we do not have a happy history of elections. After the establishment of Pakistan, we could not hold elections for 23 years. In 1970, the decision of the election was not recognized and the country was divided. One election broke the country, one gave the gift of eleven years of martial law. It was mentioned a lot but no one talked about 2018. Those who laughed at our punishments in 2018 should have thought. The results of the 2018 election came 4 days later.
He said that if the election commissioner conducted the election here, did Imam Kaaba, Imam Abu Hanifa come and conduct the election in KPK? In 2013, there were 35 punctures, today the form is 45. If the fraud happened, it happened in the whole country. If you win the election in KPK, it’s fine, if someone else wins in any other province, it’s rigged. This should not happen. It was wrong in 2018 and it is still wrong today.
Senator Irfan Siddiqui further said that you were punished by the lower courts and by the Supreme Court. Many people sitting in the Senate are independent, we have not joined any Sunni Council or MWM. The results of the general elections are according to the pre-election Gallup poll. When you can go to Maulana Fazlur Rehman, why don’t you sit with the democratic parties? Whether you are in the government or in the opposition, you do not shake hands. If you have reservations about the election, come to the House and play the role of the opposition. Forget the role of May 9. Remember February 8.
General elections should be audited, start with KP, Saifullah Abaro
In the meeting, Saifullah Abro expressed his views and said that disbelief was broken by God. The slogan was given, give Nawaz to the country, there was no answer from the front, take Shahbaz from the front. This is Shahid’s anger. The election has been conducted by Imam Sultan Sikandar. Audit of general elections should be conducted and start with KP. PP does not want to go along but pressure is being applied. The young leadership of PP is not sitting with the fear of how they will go to Punjab tomorrow.
He said that the assembly session has not yet taken place, how did you know to sit in the opposition? You see what the youth of Pakistan has done. Audit Form 45 and everything will be known. Get the audit done first, whoever forms the government should form the government. The one from Sialkot who used to say something was shameful, he was not ashamed
Rehana Dar was the lead of 99 percent. How did 75 thousand votes fall on one percent? This is the first election that the third-fourth candidate is winning.
He said that the Senate should audit the form 45 of the whole country, otherwise they will go to Qazi Sahib. If they are involved in rigging, they should be hanged. Has Pakistan not been awarded before, this Nawaz has also been awarded. PTI will take oath and become a thorn in your neck. If you win the Pindi election, we will withdraw all objections. 13 seats of Rawalpindi should be audited.
