The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) agreed on Friday to file a review petition against the Supreme Court’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) reserved seats verdict.
According to sources, a meeting was held between the ruling coalition to discuss administrative matters in Punjab, the current political situation, and the government’s proposal to ban PTI.
It was decided that further consultations would be held regarding the ban on PTI, and a review petition would be filed against the Supreme Court’s verdict.
The PML-N delegation included National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq, Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar, Law Minister Azam Nazeer Tarar, and Rana Sanaullah.
The Attorney General and other officials were also present at the meeting while the PPP delegation comprised of Sherry Rehman, Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, and Nadeem Afzal Chan.
PPP Central Punjab General Secretary Hasan Murtaza had criticised the PML-N decision to impose restrictions on political parties and Article 6 sanctions on PTI leaders, deeming it unjustified.
He emphasised that political disagreements should not lead to the dissolution of any party and stressed the importance of political entities adhering to democratic norms.
