巴基斯坦控制的克什米尔地区周一在普奇区四个选区进行了立法议会选举的最后阶段投票[1]。此次投票在被禁组织联合人民行动委员会发起抵制呼吁的背景下进行[1],该组织因安全和公共秩序考虑而被禁止[1]。投票还引发了关于为印控克什米尔流离失所者保留的12个立法席位的争议,并在数周前遭遇暴力抗议[1]。
巴基斯坦穆斯林联盟-谢里夫党已在前两个阶段赢得34个席位中的24个[1],预计将首次在十年内成功组建区域政府[1]。巴基斯坦政治事务顾问拉纳·萨纳乌拉预测该党将获得三分之二多数席位[1]。虽然联合人民行动委员会要求政府采纳其38项诉求,但政府已接受其中的36项[1]。整个选举过程预计将在本月内完成[1]。
The final phase of legislative assembly elections in Pakistan-administered Kashmir proceeded on Monday in four constituencies of the Poonch district, despite a boycott call from the banned United People's Action Committee (JAAC)[1]. The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has already secured 24 of 34 seats across the first two voting phases and is positioned to form a regional government for the first time in a decade[1].
The elections have drawn significant attention amid disputes over 12 legislative seats reserved for those displaced from Indian-administered Kashmir and weeks of violent protests[1]. The JAAC, which was banned on security and public order grounds, had called for a boycott[1]. According to Pakistan's Political Affairs Advisor Rana Sanaullah, the PML-N is expected to secure a two-thirds majority[1]. The government accepted 36 of 38 demands put forward by JAAC[1]. Election authorities anticipate completing the entire electoral process by the end of the month[1].
