In Pakistan, we should discourage the interim government, its selection etc. It is the wastage of time and recourses. The elected government should continue like India, but their power should go with the Independent Election Commission office from the IST of October, in the election year. If the sitting PM contest election then he/she will step down and the Chairman Senate will continue as Executive head. If the current PM not taking part in the election ,then he shall continue with the small cabinet of the senators etc. For conducting general election through biometric system promoted in the country, I have some suggestion; • General election should be held in the month of November in Pakistan. • This election should be conducted in three dates not in a single day. i.e.( 1—10Nov) those area in which snow is expected, (11-20 Nov) Punjab & Islamabad, (21-30 Nov) Sind & Baluchistan. • Election Commission shall announced the final result on the 10th Dec, • National Assembly first session should be called on up to 25th Dec. • Member shall take oath, Speaker & deputy speaker should be elected and Prime Minister should be nominated, from 25th –31st December. • Ist January PM shall take oath for the period of four year.
