Will PTI contest elections on the election symbol of bat or not? The big decision of Peshawar High Court came

The Peshawar High Court has decided the case related to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) intra-party election and the election symbol, but the election symbol of the Tehreek-e-Insaf has not been restored. Peshawar High Court Justice Ijaz Anwar and Justice Syed Arshad Ali heard the petitions filed against the intra-party election by PTI.

Justice Syed Arshad Ali asked under which section the Election Commission has taken action against this party, the lawyer of the complainant said that action has been taken under Section 215 of the Election Act, on which the court said that the result of the election is within 7 days. It has been submitted, the counsel for the petitioner said that the Election Commission should have seen that the intra-party elections were held under Section 208. All said that what the founder PTI said would happen.

Justice Ijaz Anwar remarked that here all the parties are being run by people of the same family, perhaps this is the only party which is allowing the workers to come forward.

Barrister Ali Zafar, the lawyer of PTI, while responding to the objections of the lawyers of the complainant, said that the lawyers of the parties raised questions on the jurisdiction of the court.

Barrister Ali Zafar said that our intra-party elections were held in Peshawar, which comes under the jurisdiction of the High Court, now the elections are being held for the whole country, the general secretary of our party is also from this province.

Justice Ijaz Anwar asked who is the general secretary of your party? Barrister Ali Zafar said that Omar Ayub is the General Secretary who belongs to this province, the case against model Ayan Ali was in Rawalpindi, he was arrested at Karachi Airport, at that time the jurisdiction of the High Court was also questioned.

PTI’s lawyer said that in the Ayyan Ali case, the Supreme Court declared that the Sindh High Court has jurisdiction, the complainant’s complaints are based on bad faith, the complainant wants to end the party, not re-election. The decision can be channelized anywhere in Islamabad or Peshawar High Court, this province has been ruled by PTI for 2 times, saying that the party office is in Islamabad, the case cannot be here, is inappropriate.

Sikander Bashir Mohmand, the lawyer of the Election Commission, said in his arguments that the paper was waved and said that this is the party chairman and these are the results. Founder PTI will say that will happen.

Justice Arshad Ali said that intra-party elections are held under section 208 of the Election Act, how the party symbol was withdrawn under subsection 209 of the Election Act, 2015. It is the job of the Election Commission not just to watch but to be satisfied.

The election commission lawyer said that in section 209, the party chairman’s form 65 is an affidavit that the party elections were held under the party’s constitution. It is passed, after the election schedule is released, the party asks for the election symbol, after the election schedule is released, then the election symbols are allotted, the election symbols will be allotted tomorrow and the day after the election, after the election, the political party has nothing to do with the symbol. lived

A two-member bench of the Peshawar High Court, after hearing the arguments of the petitioners, the Election Commission and the PTI lawyers, handed down a safe decision and restored the Tehreek-e-Insaf’s election symbol.
