Four political parties contesting the upcoming General and Regional Elections, on Tuesday, signed the Ethnic Relations Commission’s (ERC) code of conduct for the elections.
The code of conduct is meant to be a pledge by political parties contesting the polls to conduct its campaign and head to the elections with commitments to avoid hate speech, divisive rhetoric and put national interest first.
Chairman of the ERC, Shaikh Moeen-ul-Hack while delivering brief remarks at the signing ceremony, stated that the signing is not merely a ceremonial act but is a deeply meaningful declaration for a national commitment to peace, order and respect for the democratic process.
