The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Saturday dismissed a number of petitions challenging rejection of the nomination papers on the ground of having proposers and seconders from outside their respective constituencies. Several candidates had filed the petitions against the rejection of their nomination papers by returning officers on the basis of having proposers and seconders outside their respective constituencies.
The petitioners prayed the court to declare the decision of returning officers for rejection of their nomination papers as illegal and unlawful. They had also pleaded the court to order the ECP to allow them to file fresh nomination papers.
