"You are up against mafias who are against free and fair elections," he said. "Not everyone can do justice when you have a low moral standing, you enter into deals, you cannot fight mafias," the prime minister said, noting that all this happens in the absence of free and fair elections. The prime minister told the parliamentarians that till they, who are the country's leaders, do not change themselves, they cannot lift the moral standards of the nation. The prime minister also wondered why the election commission and the Opposition opposed the electoral reforms despite videos showing lawmakers taking money. The prime minister asked why, when everyone knew that horse-trading takes place in Senate elections, did the election commission and Opposition oppose electoral reforms. "The Supreme Court said that verifiable votes should be introduced in Senate elections, but the Opposition parties and election commission opposed this," he said, wondering why the government was being criticised for electoral reforms as it would gain no "personal benefit" from them. Public representatives are seen putting money in their bags, while the election commission and the government look on silently." This is how low our moral standards have fallen. "Videos surfaced showing money being distributed. Politicians are aware of what happens during Senate elections, he said. Highlighting the importance of electoral reforms, he said that the 2018 general elections were termed as "rigged" by the PML-N despite the election personnel being appointed during their tenure.
'This is how low our moral standards have fallen' "In the last 1.5 years, have they not helped the government, they did not bring any proposals they just boycotted sessions," the prime minister said. He pointed out that the government had invited the Opposition on multiple occasions to discuss electoral reforms, but they refused to be a part of it, and did not propose another solution either. If someone wants to verify the, then they can check the paper trail," the prime minister said, citing the benefits of EVMs.
"As soon as the elections are over, the result is in front of you. The decision to introduce EVMs was not made overnight, he said, noting that his government had studied election reports and came to the conclusion that EVMs were the solution to stop rigging. PM Imran Khan censures ECP for opposing EVMsĬensuring the ECP for opposing EVMS and electoral reforms, the premier said that Pakistan has been failing at to conduct elections that were free, fair, transparent, and acceptable to all parties, for the past 50 years. "We wanted to bring reforms so that the next elections would be fair," he said. The government is responsible for bringing electoral reforms, he said, reminding everyone that PTI had staged a 126-day sit-in in 2014 to push for reforms.
The prime minister said reforms are always met by opposition as they go against the "corrupt elements' vested interest". The only solution (for instant results) are EVMs, he said. "Do they know what happens in the of elections? Ballot papers are double stamped the results arrive after 24 hours," he said. "They provided strange reasons: What if there is no electricity in Balochistan, what if this happens, what if that happens," the premier said, quoting ECP officials.
