On Monday, June 15, 2026, the Chief Justice of Pakistan has taken a sudden and strict notice regarding reports that government officials are using state resources to help their political party win upcoming by-elections.

What is Happening?

The Supreme Court stepped in after the opposition complained that police and government vehicles were being used to intimidate voters and attend political rallies. The Chief Justice ordered the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to submit a detailed report within 48 hours.

Why Does This Matter?

In simple terms, the rules say the government cannot use its official power to win elections. By stepping in, the highest court is ensuring that the playing field remains fair for all political parties before the voters go to the polls.
