PESHAWAR: The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf on Monday filed an application in the Peshawar High Court (PHC) to get reserved seats in the Khyber Pakhtubkhwa Assembly.
This application was submitted by Mashal Yousafzai through senior lawyer Qazi Anwar.
The petitioner argued that PTI candidates mentioned party name in the nomination papers, however, it was not considered because of the withdrawal of party’s election symbol.
She requested the court that the PTI candidates should be adjusted on the reserved seats.
She argued that only the Supreme Court could delist a party and not the Election Commission of Pakistan.
The petitioner made the Election Commission a party in the case and requested an immediate hearing.
