ISLAMABAD: The Council of Common Interests (CCI) is likely to approve the controversial Census-2017 at its meeting to be held on Wednesday (Jan 27) with Prime Minister Imran Khan in the chair.
The PM has called the 44th meeting of the CCI to discuss various issues, including the issue of notification of Census-2017 results.
The federal cabinet, after a lapse of three years, had approved the National Census with a dissenting note submitted by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), one of the government’s allies.
The MQM has been raising its voice against the Census-2017 and delimitation of constituencies in Karachi.
