F.P. Report

ISLAMABAD: Opposition leader in National Assembly Shehbaz Sharif has written a letter to Prime Minister Imran Khan and recommended three names each for the vacant posts of the members of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) from Balochistan and Sindh, on Tuesday.

According to reports, Shehbaz Sharif wrote a letter in response to the PM Imran Khan earlier letter suggesting names for the posts, Shehbaz recommended the names of Shah Mohammad Jatoi, Chief Justice (retd) Muhammad Noor Meskenzai and Muhammad Rauf Ata for their nomination as a member of the ECP from Balochistan.

Shehbaz has proposed the names of Justice (retd) Abdul Rasool Memon, Khalid Javed and Justice (retd) Noorul Haq Qureshi for their nomination as a member of the ECP from Sindh.

Last month, in a letter sent by the PM Office to Shehbaz, PM Imran suggested names for the appointment of two members of ECP from Sindh and Balochistan. An earlier letter sent by the office of the foreign minister had been rejected by the opposition.
