ECP to scrutinize credentials of Senate candidates via online process

ISLAMABAD: (HRNW) The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has decided to scrutinize the credentials of the candidates for upcoming Senate elections through an online process.

The documents submitted by the candidates would be verified by the interior ministry, NADRA, Federal Investigation Agency (FIA), and National Accountability Bureau (NAB). The financial documents would also be verified by the Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) and State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).

The ECP has already sent letters to the heads of these organizations to devise a mechanism for an online scrutiny process.

“Every institution will appoint a focal person immediately and apprise the ECP,” said a spokesman of the election commission. “The returning officers will be equipped with modern online facilities,” he said.
