LAHORE: Jamaat-e-Islami(JI) has decided to approach the Supreme Court on the issue of delay in the general election.
Jamaat-e-Islami Deputy Ameer Liaquat Baloch and former MNA Abdul Akbar Chitrali have prepared an petition, through Justice (Retd) Ghulam Mohiuddin. The petition will be filed in the Supreme Court next week.
In the petition prepared by Jamaat-e-Islami, the position has been taken that the delay in the general elections by the caretaker federal government is a violation of Article 224 of the Constitution. It is clear, but the election is being delayed on the basis of the meeting between the representatives of the Council of Common Interests(CCI) and the caretaker Chief Ministers.
In the petition, the position has been taken that in the meeting of the Council of Common Interests(CCI), the two Chief Ministers have completed their first term of the caretaker government, now the status of these governments is illegal and unconstitutional.
