ISLAMABAD: The Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) and the four members of the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) cannot be removed by the government or any other authority and their ouster is possible only by following the constitutional procedure applicable to the exit of a superior court judge.
A reference is required to be sent to the Supreme Judicial Council (SJC) against the CEC or any member of the ECP for his expulsion. There are three ways in which the CEC or an ECP member can be removed. They themselves resign, they are held guilty of misconduct by the SJC or are incapable of performing their functions due to physical or mental incapacity.
