According to sources, the PML-N led coalition government will form an electoral reform committee in the coming two to three days, but PTI has decided to not be a part of the committee.

Talking on ARY News talk show 11th Hour PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry had clarified that they do not wish to participate in any electoral reform committee until the date of the fresh elections is not announced.
