The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has taken action against violations of the code of conduct, issuing a show cause notice to Grand Democratic Alliance’s (GDA) candidate from Karachi for aerial firing in a public gathering. Irfanullah Marwat, the GDA candidate in PS-105 (Karachi-East), has been served a show cause notice and asked to submit a reply within two days. The ECP has also requested the Inspector General of Police (IGP) Sindh to take strict action on the matter. In another crackdown, election monitoring teams and the district administration removed illegal election materials in Quetta City. According to the ECP’s code of conduct, it is prohibited to put any kind of election materials on government properties.
