The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is convening a key meeting on Thursday (today) to discuss the Peshawar High Court’s ruling against polls overseer’s decision against the PTI.

The electoral body had declared PTI’s intra-party elections null and void and taken away the party’s bat symbol. However, the PHC in a single bench ruling quash the ECP judgement and restored the bat symbol to the PTI on Tuesday.

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.

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.
