PRIME Minister Ahmet Davutoglu has refuted any prospect of moving forward the upcoming parliamentary election, currently scheduled for June 7, 2015.

“The election will be held according to its original schedule,” Davutoğlu said during a visit to Kahramanmaraş, underlining the importance of “political stability” since the Justice and Development Party (AKP) first came to power in 2002.

Talk of an early election has gradually gained momentum over the past few weeks in the Turkish capital, particularly after the country’s top election board began its preparations for a parliamentary election.

However, the chief of the Supreme Election Board (YSK) denied that its current work was intended as preparation for an early election.

“It is unthinkable that the YSK will take a position according to reports in the media. Furthermore, the YSK is not the authority to make a decision for an early election. There is no early election alarm at the YSK,” YSK President Sadi Güven said.

Meanwhile, Davutoğlu also floated the idea that the two opposition leaders, namely main opposition Republican People’s Party (CHP) head Kemal Kilicdaroglu and Nationalist Movement Party (MHP) head Devlet Bahçeli, should leave their posts if they do not succeed in the upcoming elections in 2015.

However the YSK has denied the report claiming it already started preparations for early general elections.
