The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has made significant decisions regarding several electoral matters, including the rejection of an application filed by independent candidate Ali Ejaz Battar from NA-117 Lahore.
In the wake of the recent elections, the ECP issued a notification declaring the victory of Abdul Aleem Khan, the president of the Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP), from the NA-117 constituency in Lahore.
However, in a separate development, the Commission dismissed the application submitted by independent candidate Ali Ijaz Batter.
The rejection of Ali Ejaz Battar’s application underscores the regulatory body’s scrutiny of candidates and their eligibility to contest elections.
Furthermore, the ECP reinstated the notification declaring the victory of PML-N’s Anjam Aqeel in NA-46, affirming the decision despite previous challenges alleging irregularities in Form 47.
PTI-backed candidate, Aamir Masood Mughal had approached the electoral watchdog for review.
