A general election in Pakistan due to take place later this year will be held using a new census, the law minister said on Saturday, indicating it could delayed by several months.
Azam Nazeer Tarar told Geo News TV that it could take about four months to complete the process of a census and draw new constituency boundaries.
The Election Commission of Pakistan will decide exactly how much time it will need for the delimitations, Tarar said. It was not possible to complete the delimitations and hold the elections within the constitutionally required deadline, he said.
