MUSHARRAF - FEBRUARY POLL VOW !

Pakistan will hold elections before 15 February, state television has quoted President Pervez Musharraf as saying.
Gen Musharraf has been under pressure to honour the date for elections - originally scheduled in January - since imposing emergency rule last Saturday.
Gen Musharraf said he declared the state of emergency because of militant violence and an unruly judiciary.
On Wednesday, US President George W Bush called Gen Musharraf to urge him to hold early elections.
