IPP Central Information Secretary Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan said that her political party will support the elections under 2023 census data.

She, however, urged the stakeholders to prioritise the importance of voters instead of the census statistics. She said that the debate on old and new census was initiated by the prime minister.

She said that the debate on census issues would delay general elections for five to six months. The polls will be delayed for at least six months if the matter was forwarded to the CEC.

Firdous Ashiq Awan added that the matters related to new delimitations and voter lists will also come to light. She clarified that IPP is ready to participate in the general polls on old and new census data.
