Commission of Pakistan to hold the Presidential election on 30 July

the petition filed by, Raja Zafarul Haq, the PML(N) leader, who pleaded
the court that a large number of Parliamentarians, who will cast vote
in the election would precede for Umrah and observe Aitakaf, during the
last ten days of Ramazan.
The Election Commission in its reply to the Supreme Court mentioned that the Court’s orders will be implemented. Earlier, the Presidential election of Pakistan was scheduled to be held on 6 August 2013. The term of the incumbent President of Pakistan, Asif Ali Zardari will end on 8 September 2013.

This is commonly practiced during the last 10 days of Ramadan.
