In a letter addressed to the Chief Secretary and IG Sindh, Umar Hameed Khan, the Secretary of the Election Commission, raised concerns about the violation of electoral guidelines.
The letter highlighted that the Election Commission has observed instances where former provincial ministers and political appointees continue to enjoy protocol, security, and other privileges. The Election Commission had previously instructed the retrieval of official residences and vehicles from these individuals.
