ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Faisal Javed on Thursday said that PTI senators boycotted joint session of the parliament.
The PTI leader took to Twitter and said that the electoral reforms bill to be presented and passed in the joint session of parliament will deprive overseas Pakistanis of their right to vote. While the NAB reforms bill aims at giving a NRO-2 to the ‘imported government’, he added.
He said that the abolishment of the electronic voting machine (EVM) would affect transparency of the upcoming elections and raise questions about its result.
The government has already passed the bills from the National Assembly and the Senate, but the President has sent the bills back for review raising legal and moral concerns.
The head of the state has advised the Parliamentary committees to review both the bills. The bills were passed in a haste by the National Assembly on May 26 and by the Senate on May 27, 2022, the president remarked.
