EC and politicians
One of the Election Commissioners told the press on 25 May that the Election Commission is determined to hold election some time in December and there is no time to tinker with it. He further said that after the completion of voter list in October, the election schedule would be declared. He categorically mentioned the good intentions of the government and also that the political parties would be blamed if election is not held in time.
It cannot be his personal opinion, it is definitely the opinion of the Election Commission. It all now depends on the politicians and the CTG. Now the politicians have the main role to play. The only way open to the politicians is to compel the government to hold elections. If they fail they will invite more trouble.
