An emergency meeting of Election Commission is being held in Islamabad on Saturday to discuss Lahore High Court decision pertaining to the nomination papers for general elections, reported by Radio Pakistan.
The ECP ordered Returning Officers not to receive nomination papers scheduled from Saturday June 2.
It may be recalled that Lahore High Court annulled the nomination papers prepared by Parliament for contesting the forthcoming elections.
Meanwhile, Election Commission has advised candidates, who want to contest elections on party basis, to attach their party affiliation certificates with their nomination papers.
However, if they fail to do so they can present the certificate to the concerned Returning Officer before allotment of election symbols to them.
