2008-03-02
In case you were wondering...
The Election Commission (EC) of Pakistan Saturday officially issued results of the general elections 2008 saying it has accomplished its responsibility of holding free, fair and transparent elections.

Secretary of EC Kunwar Muhammad Dilshad addressing a press conference here said that 258 winning candidates in National Assembly, 291 in Punjab Provincial Assembly, 122 in Sindh, 89 in NWFP and 48 in Baluchistan have been notified.
He said the EC has accomplished its responsibility in the best possible manner and foreign observers and diplomats termed the polls free, fair and peaceful. He added that the schedule of by-elections would be announced soon after sessions of newly elected National and Provincial Assemblies.

President of Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N), Shehbaz Sharif and Co-chairman of Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) after being acquitted in legal cases against them are likely to contest by-elections.
