Balochistan National Party-Mengal, JUI-Nazariati, Hazara Democratic Party and Awami National Party voiced their concern over what they termed as ‘unnecessary delays’ in announcing the mayor, deputy mayors and chairman of district committees in the province.
PML-N General Secretary Naseebullah Bazai warned that it would hold protests if the government failed to delay the final phase of the elections any further. “It is a deliberate delay and political parties will intensify their protest if the next phase is not initiated soon,” he said.
