      <title>Imran’s ‘planted agent’ speech angers election commission</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30285049/imrans-planted-agent-speech-angers-election-commission</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Election Commission of Pakistan has taken notice of speeches Imran Khan has made against the chief election commissioner in which he called him a “planted agent”.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;It has asked the Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority for a record of the speech Imran Khan made in Peshawar at a workers’ convention on April 26.&lt;/p&gt;
    &lt;figure class='media  w-full  w-full  media--stretch    media--uneven  media--stretch'&gt;
        &lt;div class='media__item  '&gt;&lt;picture&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.thenews.com.pk/assets/uploads/updates/2022-04-28/954025_5612561_ECPnotice_updates.jpg"  alt="" /&gt;&lt;/picture&gt;&lt;/div&gt;
        &lt;figcaption class='media__caption  '&gt;&lt;/figcaption&gt;
    &lt;/figure&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ECP also asked for records of Haleem Adil Sheikh, Khurram Sher Zaman and Senator Ijaz Chaudhry’s speeches at the same rally.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PTI chairman had lashed out at Chief Election Commissioner Sikandar Sultan Raja, calling him a “planted agent” of the PML-N. “Raja has lost all his credibility and he should immediately resign,” he had said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ECP rejected the allegation that CEC was taking decisions against the PTI “alone”, saying this perception was “wrong and absurd.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The ECP clarified that the commission is a constitutional body which makes decisions in light of the Constitution and the law.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Some people are deliberately and maliciously giving the impression that decisions are being taken by the ECP individually, which is totally wrong and absurd.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The statement said that since January 2020, all the decisions in the Election Commission have been unanimous, and no dissenting note has been given.&lt;/p&gt;
