Dissolution of the national assembly means fresh elections must be held in the country within three months. Pakistan's State Minister for Information Farrukh Habib said that fresh elections in Pakistan will be held in 90 days.
Taking to his official Twitter handle, Habib made the announcement, although a final decision will come from the president of Pakistan and the election commission.
