ISLAMABAD, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 11th Dec, 2020 ) :Pakistan Peopes Party (PPP) Senator Taj Haider on Friday urged the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to hold bye-election in three Sindh Assembly seats at the earliest.

Senator Taj, in a letter to the Chief Election Commissioner, said the postponement of bye-elections till January 30, 2021 again amounted to disenfranchisement of the voters of the three Constituencies.

PS-52 Umarkot, PS-88 Malir and PS-43 Sanghar were in rural Sindh where COVID-19 was almost non-existent, he claimed.

He said elections were held recently in Gilgit Baltistan and the United States amid the pandemic.
