The PTI has challenged the decision of the Election Commission regarding the by-election of NA-75 Daska in the Supreme Court.
PTI candidate Ali Asjad Malhi has challenged the decision of the Election Commission in the Supreme Court.
Ali Asjad, in his petition filed in the Supreme Court, took the position that the Election Commission had not properly reviewed the available records and therefore the decision of the Commission was contrary to the facts.
The petitioner said that there was no justification for the order to hold re-election in NA-75 Daska, re-election meant that the people of the constituency would again face law and order situation.
The petitioner sought annulment of the decision of the Election Commission to declare the by-election null and void and order the release of election results of NA-75 Daska on February 19.
It may be recalled that the by-election in NA-75 Daska was marred by chaos and two people were killed due to the tense situation, while the Election Commission had taken notice of the disappearance of 20 presiding officers of the constituency. The election was declared null and void.
