Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N)

The three main political parties must evolve a political consensus through a grand dialogue.

The U.N. High Commissioner for Human Rights urged Pakistani authorities to ensure a fully free and fair voting process.

Despite Imran Khan's immense popularity among the masses, the future of his party appears uncertain at this point.

The number of people who have applied to contest the upcoming elections has increased by 33 percent over that in the 2018 election.

Parties and politicians are accusing each other of receiving support from the caretaker government.

It signals a fair level of confidence in upcoming elections being fair and inclusive, and that he will be treated fairly by the courts.

The last year has been been a microcosm of Pakistan’s seven decades of dysfunction, now culminating in ambiguity over the most fundamental of democratic exercises: holding an election. 

Where the military stands on the question of Khan’s removal is unclear at this stage.

Mutual distrust between the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan Peoples Party has rendered the 11-party coalition toothless.

As Pakistanis head to the polls, the electoral exercise is overshadowed by a bevy of concerns.

Khan has managed to effectively rally against the established political order, but could he deliver on his promises?

Instead of a celebration of democratic transfer of power, doubts are growing about interference in the political campaigns.
