      <title>ECP to make next move in battle over bat</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/30345752/ecp-to-make-next-move-in-battle-over-bat</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is convening a key meeting on Thursday (today) to discuss the Peshawar High Court’s &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30345536/phc-hands-the-bat-symbol-back-to-pti-in-interim-relief-order"&gt;ruling&lt;/a&gt; against polls overseer’s &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30345180/pti-loses-its-bat-symbol-as-ecp-scrapes-intra-party-election"&gt;decision against the PTI&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The electoral body had declared &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30342721/gohar-elected-pti-chairmain-unopposed-explains-his-position"&gt;PTI’s intra-party elections&lt;/a&gt; &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30345180/pti-loses-its-bat-symbol-as-ecp-scrapes-intra-party-election"&gt;null and void&lt;/a&gt; and taken away the party’s bat symbol. However, the PHC in a single bench ruling &lt;a href="https://www.aajenglish.tv/news/30345536/phc-hands-the-bat-symbol-back-to-pti-in-interim-relief-order"&gt;quash&lt;/a&gt; the ECP judgement and restored the bat symbol to the PTI on Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Sources say the ECP is planning its next move and at today’s meeting it could make a decision about approaching the Supreme Court of Pakistan.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Some experts believe the PHC’s single bench ruling is unlikely to stand because the ECP is also equivalent to a high court and its decisions could be reviewed only by a division bench. This was the argument advanced by Additional Attorney General Sanaullah before the PHC on Tuesday.&lt;/p&gt;
