ECP summons KP, Islamabad officials on July 1 over delay in local govt polls data

The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has set July 1 as a deadline for Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Islamabad to submit required maps and data for local government elections. The ECP invoked Article 220 to address delays in providing information, with notices issued to officials for failure to meet requirements. Repeated delays in elections since 2021 have left residents facing infrastructure and service issues.
