LAHORE: The Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI)-led government seems to have prevented Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan from being sworn in as a member of the Punjab Assembly, citing possible contempt of court as certain petitions were filed in various courts over the issue of the disgruntled PML-N leader’s oath.
On Monday, assembly secretary Muhammad Khan Bhatti sought two days to check with the principal seat and Rawalpindi bench of the Lahore High Court (LHC) if any stay orders had been issued against Chaudhry Nisar’s oath-taking.

LAHORE: Special Assistant to Chief Minister Firdous Ashiq Awan says Prime Minister Imran Khan has proposed reballotting in 20 polling stations of Daska as a goodwill gesture while the PTI has achieved success in the result cards available with the PML-N.
She says the PML-N always preferred ‘selection’ instead of election and the Daska by-election has smashed all its hopes as the people of Daska have rejected its hereditary politics.
Firdous Ashiq Awan was talking to the media after addressing a ceremony held in connection with “World Thinking Day” by Pakistan Girl Guides Association Punjab at its office here on Tuesday.
