He said that the election in KPK was on a much larger scale due to which widespread mismanagement was observed.

Rizvi said that it was FAFEN who proposed the idea of conducting election in different phases which resulted in better management. He also appreciated the role of Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) and said that ECP has invested in better training of officials.
