However, though the ECP issued the schedule as it had been instructed to, by the Supreme Court, it still did not seem that the elections would take place on time. The Supreme Court order did not tie in either the funding or security for the election, apart from ordering the government to do the needful. That leaves the Prime Minister open to a charge of contempt of court, if he does not make the arrangements. The most obvious issue is that PTI chairman Imran Khan has not got what he demanded initially, national elections. However, the PTI has not lost much compared to the judiciary, or rather the Supreme Court, which has had its internal divisions thoroughly exposed.
