According to the president Dr. Arif Alvi, the judiciary, administration, and political leaders all agree on holding elections on time.

• One must do if the public elects someone,” Alvi goes on to say.

• Elections for President are scheduled for February 8.

• Alvi praises the Supreme Court for taking a “practical step” in determining the election date.

President Dr Arif Alvi has stated that if Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supreme leader Nawaz Sharif is elected Prime Minister for the fourth time after the February 8 elections, he will be sworn in.

In an interview with Voice of America (VOA) Urdu, the president of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) said that administering the oath was part of his job and that he would fulfill it.

He went on to say, “One must do if the public elects someone.”

The president made the remark in response to a question about whether he would administer the PML-N supremo’s oath of office.

Dr. Arif Alvi expressed optimism during the interview when asked if he believes the general elections will be held on the scheduled date next year.

“The judiciary, administration, and political leaders all agree on the importance of holding elections on time.” “There is no doubt that the elections will take place on February 8,” he stated.

When asked about the possibility of polling-day uncertainty, he told a US broadcaster that no lapse had occurred when the election date was set.

“I commend the Supreme Court on taking a practical and unanimous election date,” he said, after emphasizing how his role has been beneficial in ensuring that elections are held on time in the country.

The government has promised to create a level playing field.

In response to the concept of a level playing field, President Asif Ali Zardari stated that it is the responsibility of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and the government to provide one.

Drew the government’s attention by writing a letter requesting that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) concerns be addressed.”

“The government has assured me that a level playing field will be provided,” he said, adding that he trusts the government to do so.

Dr. Arif Alvi insisted that he is the spokesperson for all Pakistanis, not just one party. According to Dr. Arif Alvi, the Constitution does not allow the president to take practical steps to ensure fair elections.

However, he stated that it is his responsibility as the head of state to continue “prompting” the executive to do its job transparently.

The president has no executive authority, but his remarks are well-considered. “Constitutionally, this is a symbolic position,” he remarked, emphasizing that one cannot violate the Constitution while expectations remain in place.

Dr. Arif Alvi maintained that if politics, government, and the establishment work together, problems can be handled.

The president expressed his gratitude for being the fourth president to complete his tenure.

Courts will decide Imran’s involvement in the polls, according to Dr. Arif Alvi

When asked if he doubted PTI leader Imran Khan will run in the elections, Dr. Alvi responded in the negative.

The president remarked, “I won’t speculate into that; it depends on the courts.”

Why his attempts to make contact with Khan’s military organization had failed was the question posed to him.

“There were many reasons for the failure of reconciliation between the army and PTI chairman.”

In response to a question on whether he believes a certain party is front-runner ahead of selection in Pakistan, the president stated, “I don’t want to turn myself controversial by arguing on such matters.”

In order to prevent the president’s stance from becoming divisive, he continued, saying he would not comment on it.
