The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) filed an intra-court appeal on Wednesday against the Lahore High Court’s (LHC) order to notify members of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on the five reserved seats in the Punjab Assembly.
In the intra-court appeal filed by the PML-N vice president, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), and the federal government were made parties.
It was adopted in the appeal that a single bench of the LHC had ordered the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to notify PTI members of the five reserved Punjab Assembly seats.
It was demanded in the appeal that the court declare the order of the single bench to notify the PTI members on the five reserved seats of the Punjab Assembly null and void.
“Until the final decision of the case, the order of the single bench to issue notification for appointment on the five reserved seats of the Punjab Assembly should be suspended,” it requested.
“The case should be fixed for hearing today,” it added.
