It is beyond my humble understanding if this flexibility offers anything more to the socio-political spectrum. This has nothing to do with competence or credibility of the candidate but rather an issue of pragmatism. The notion of democracy in a nutshell provides a voice to all areas of a particular country through elected representatives of those areas. Before this law, leaders were allowed to contest from as many seats as they wished to, a situation mirroring the status quo in Pakistan. Like “one person, one vote”, the principle of “one leader, one constituency” should also be followed.
