| Civic Education - Electoral system |
Civic
education is the study of responsibilities of a nation and its just not
responsibilities, it’s about the rights they owe, the responsibilities of a
person to each other as elements of a political body and to the government. It is
a study of civil law and civil code and the study of government with
consideration of citizens.
Pakvoter
is an information portal for civic education and all about political
information in Pakistan. It has many
features within it is categorized into several sub categories. It’s an
information guide that informs us about civic education that covers political
development history in Pakistan, Election history of Pakistan that swathe the
general elections, senate, presidential elections and the election history of
Pakistan. In legal framework, Pakvoter wraps election laws, election
observation and constitution of Pakistan; that frames the whole election system
in Pakistan.
There
are many sub categories in civic education, however in this session I am only
discussing Electoral system in Pakistan.
Electoral
system of Pakistan has been divided into Composition of Parliament, Senate of Pakistan, National Assembly, Caretaker cabinet and final electoral rolls for
2012.
In electoral system of Pakistan whole Composition
of Parliament has been divided into three parts i.e. composition of senate, National
Assembly and Provincial Assembly. Wherein composition of Senate; general seats
and Senate seats reserved for women, technocrat and non-Muslims have been
discussed for Federal Capital territory, Punjab, Sindh, Baluchistan, KPK and
FATA. In composition of National
Assembly; general seats and seat via women, technocrat and non-Muslims has been
discussed area vise and in the last sub category of Composition of Parliament
i.e. Composition of Provincial assemblies’ seats have been discussed in point
of view of General, women and minorities through each area.
In Senate of
Pakistan whole background and all the related information has been discussed
like the purpose of senate, its composition, the eligibility criteria of its
members and the legislative power it has. Likewise in National Assembly its
background, seats, its dissolution and the power it has been discussed.
In
Caretaker government, its existence and role has been discussed, that how come
care taker government come to exists, its role and the appointment took place. In
electoral rolls as the name described that the enrollment of voters has been
discussed; that how many voters belong to each province, district wise and then
the detail discussion on every district.
It’s
good to have a portal like Pakvoter that informs us about all the teeny weenie
details that are attached to Pakistan as the citizen of Pakistan its very
important for us to get know every perspective of civic education.
