00:00 Chief Election Commissioner has put all the blame on the Supreme Court.
00:06 It seems that the case has come to a showdown.
00:09 According to Don Akhbar, Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja has held the Supreme Court responsible for the complications that have arisen during the 2024 elections.
00:20 Chief Election Commissioner said that he went to the Chief Justice of Pakistan and Lahore High Court and requested him to fulfill the duties of the DRO and RO.
00:30 But there was no benefit.
00:32 Chief Election Commissioner's remarks have come to light now when the N.A.46 PTI candidate, Amir Masood Moghul's lawyer Faisal Chaudhary,
00:41 declared the elections of 8th February as the most important election of the country's history.
00:46 The lawyer said that the bureaucracy was entrusted with the task of holding the elections in 1977 and 2024.
00:54 But both the times, he has failed Pakistan.
00:59 It's a very interesting development.
01:00 I saw in the Supreme Court that when the hearing took place last week,
01:03 the Chief Justice of Pakistan gave an interesting answer to the various comments that were being made there.
01:13 When the questions were asked about the ballot marks or when arguments were being given there,
01:18 the Chief Justice of Pakistan said that the wrong interpretation of our judgment can be done by the Election Commission of Pakistan.
01:25 Listen to this.
01:27 You are taking all the implications in that judgment where there is no such implication.
01:32 Either you read the actual language, because what I find very disconcerting is commenting on judgments which people don't even bother reading.
01:42 Either read a paragraph which says this.
01:44 You don't say, "I understood." Then you understood wrongly, counsel.
01:47 As simple as that.
01:48 I didn't say that. I am saying that the Election Commission...
01:51 They can also take that as wrong.
01:54 Or you say that everything they do is right.
01:56 It's the judgment of the courts.
01:58 So, it was said that the Election Commission can also take this judgment as wrong.
02:04 The new development that has taken place today, the court is saying,
02:06 it is implying that perhaps the Election Commission did not understand the decision correctly.
02:11 The Election Commission is saying that if the responsibility of the indiscipline is there, then it is the Supreme Court.
02:15 Whose opinion seems to be stronger? Whose point is more important?
02:19 Look, if you look beyond the importance of the point,
02:23 did that decision or not understanding it affect the election or not?
02:31 If it is such a serious matter that the election of a country, which is the basis of your system,
02:37 if your decision is affecting it, then you should have taken notice.
02:41 Our courts have so much power.
02:43 And if... This is in the public knowledge, what interpretation has been made by the Election Commission.
02:50 If the interpretation was wrong, then the decision should have been clear.
02:55 First of all, it was not clear, the interpretation was wrong.
02:59 The Supreme Court should have taken notice of that immediately.
03:02 Because a matter of greater public importance is very less.
03:07 So, one more thing, where the Chief Election Commissioner is saying that
03:11 he needed a judicial staff for DRO and RO,
03:14 because he is saying that he is a responsible citizen of a country,
03:17 he is sitting on a very important post and it was denied later.
03:20 Do you think that this made a difference in the basis of the election or not?
03:24 If they do this, they do that, it does not make a difference.
03:26 No, it does make a difference because many of your elections have been conducted by the administration
03:32 and some elections have been conducted by the judiciary.
03:36 The public has more confidence in the judiciary.
03:42 Although there are many controversies there as well.
03:45 In an election, the judiciary conducted, you can be sure that the cases were seen in that,
03:50 that the candidates were asked to give the call to prayer.
03:53 There were 13 elections, right?
03:56 Yes, there were 13 or 8. I think it was 8 or 2.
03:59 It was an election of 2 or 8.
04:01 They were asked to give the call to prayer.
04:03 Someone was asked to read a certain Surah.
04:05 Someone was asked to read a certain Surah.
04:07 Yes, it was a very strange thing.
04:09 But the general impression is that if the judiciary is conducted,
04:12 then that election is more acceptable.
04:15 Let's move a little further.
04:17 Today, Nawaz Sharif Sahib gave a speech and he spoke about his statement.
04:21 But his second speech is continuing, where he spoke about Shahid Khakan Abbasi.
04:25 What did you hear in the last week's speech and today's speech?
04:29 Shahid Khakan Abbasi has also faced many difficulties.
04:33 He spent his jail time with me in 1999.
04:36 He never even said "Uff" but he spent it with great courage.
04:40 Shahid Khakan Abbasi was a very good person.
04:43 He spent his jail time with me with great courage.
04:46 He never even said "Uff" but he spent it with great courage.
04:49 I will praise him. I am talking behind his back.
04:52 But he spent his jail time with me with great courage.
04:58 He can tolerate any problem.
05:00 His mother was a great mother for us.
05:03 We should do and say what is right.
05:06 Are the paths completely separated and is it his way of reaching out to you?
05:11 Because he was remembering you very fondly.
05:13 I have a lifelong relationship with my husband.
05:15 I was 29 years old. In fact, I had a relationship with my father for 3 years.
05:21 It is a very close and deep relationship.
05:24 It is a relationship of respect and honour.
05:26 He has always been very kind.
05:28 He spoke about it in the last speech and today as well.
05:32 You have heard the recording of the first week.
05:34 So, this is a very difficult task.
05:38 Politics is a very difficult task.
05:40 I said this because these decisions were not easy for me
05:43 because a personal relationship is affected by it.
05:45 And it is a very deep personal relationship.
05:47 But I could not walk with the politician whose election was not considered.
05:51 So, the political path is separate.
05:56 Did you have any anger or on which note you were separated?
06:00 And did you convince Nawaz Sharif that since my views are different, I am going?
