KARACHI: A constitutional petition has been filed in Sindh High Court (SHC) seeking court orders for staying the general election-2018.

A petition has been filed by social worker Iqbal Kazmi in SHC taking the plea that population census process was not carried out in transparent manner in the country. Lack of transparent population census renders the government structure unjust and inequitable.

The petitioner further said that National Finance Commission also distributes resources among the provinces on the basis of population.

The petitioner has prayed the court that the general elections be halted unless the transparent population census is conducted and delimitation of constituencies process is completed.
