Karachi: Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah said that there will be no elections in Sindh for next few months. He said that government has been able to send aid to only 25 percent of flood victims, while deaths are still being recorded and province’s infrastructure has been destroyed.

CM Murad said that no one can even think about holding elections in this situation in clear words. 

Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had announced that Local Body (LB) elections in districts of Karachi Division will be held on October 23. 

Elections were supposed to take place on August 28, however, they were postponed due to heavy flooding triggered by monsoon rains in city and other cities in Sindh.
