The Independent Election Commission’s (IEC) financial and administrative deputy head Mazaaullah Dawlati on Monday said government is not responding to the commission’s official letters regarding the outline of electoral constituencies.

Dawlati said the commission drafted an outline to decrease the size of constituencies and sent this to the presidential palace 10 months ago, and that it has sent subsequent letters, but government has so far not responded to them. 

In his new book “Directorate S”, prominent American author Steve Coll has revealed that Pakistan’s spy agency Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) has been providing massive support to Taliban insurgents in Afghanistan.
 
The book titled "Directorate S" refers to the arm of Pakistani intelligence that covertly supports the Afghan Taliban.
