Muzaffarabad: A number of cases are coming to light from all over the world. Polling has begun at 8:00 am and will continue till 5.00 pm. More than 30 lakh voters will cast their votes today. The results will be declared only one hour after the polling is over. The election will be held to elect 45 assembly representatives including 33 in PoK and 12 for Kashmiri migrants.
Earlier, the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) had appealed for cancellation of elections in PoK for two months due to the crisis of the outbreak of corona infection, but it was rejected by all opposition parties. The general election to the PoK Assembly was held in July 2016 and was won by the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz led by former PM Nawaz Sharif.
It may be recalled that last year, Pakistan held assembly elections in Gilgit-Baltistan. India had criticised Pakistan for its decision to hold elections in Gilgit-Baltistan and said there was no legal basis for any action to change the condition of the military occupied area. India has bluntly conveyed to Pakistan that the entire region of the Union Territories, Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh, including the areas of Gilgit and Baltistan, is an integral part of it (India).
