The Lahore High Court (LHC) has issued notices and called for a report from provincial government in a petition challenging the Ordinance promulgated by the government allowing kite-flying. The court passed these orders in a petition filed by Lawyer's Welfare Front (LWF) challenging the Ordinance in question.
The petitioner, LWF President Khawaja Tariq Sohail, contended that no law could be framed against the public interest. He said that due to kite-flying a number of people had already lost their lives.
He prayed to the court to declare the Ordinance in question as illegal, unconstitutional and promulgated without lawful authority.
The court, after hearing the petitioner's counsel at length, issued notices to the respondents and called for reply from the provincial government within a week and rose for the day.
