On the conclusion of the process of polling for General Elections – 2024, I announce with immense satisfaction that the overall security situation across the country was kept generally stable to ensure the peaceful conduct of free and fair elections.
As Minister of Interior, I acknowledge the unwavering dedication and professionalism of our security forces, law enforcement agencies, and police personnel. These forces were deployed extensively and in large numbers, ensuring the smooth conduct of the electoral process, which is a testament to their commitment to democracy and the people of Pakistan.
Special congratulations are due to all the security personnel who played a critical role in facilitating a peaceful voting environment. Their deployment covered even the most far-flung areas of Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, interior Sindh, and Punjab, underscoring our commitment to ensuring every citizen’s right to vote in a secure atmosphere.
Despite a few isolated incidents, the overall situation remained under control, demonstrating the effectiveness of our security measures.
Smooth conclusion of the polling process underscores commitment of our Armed Forces, Civil Armed Forces and law enforcement agencies to providing a peaceful environment for voters, enabling them to exercise their democratic right without fear.
