ECP forms tribunals to hear election complaints

The tribunals will hear cases for both general and by elections

The Election Commission of Pakistan has established electoral tribunals for handling general and by-elections. The tribunals will consist of both serving and retired judges, aimed at addressing election-related grievances effectively.

In Lahore, four judges from the Lahore High Court have been appointed to hear electoral petitions. The tribunal includes Justice Sultan Tanveer Ahmed, Justice Iqbal Choudhry, Justice Anwar Hussain, and Justice Sardar Sarfraz Dogar.

In Islamabad, the tribunal will feature Justices Rana Zahid Mahmood, Mahmood Maqbool Bajwa, Zafar Iqbal, and Abdul Shakoor Paracha.

The Election Commission has issued a notification for the tribunal established for Punjab, with Justice Sultan Tanveer Ahmed assigned to hear cases from Lahore’s NA-117 constituency.

Additionally, tribunals have been set up in Multan, Bahawalpur, and Rawalpindi to address electoral petitions.

These tribunals will also hear grievances related to NA-121, as well as from Sheikhupura, Nankana Sahib, Sialkot, and Wazirabad. This initiative aims to ensure a transparent and efficient process for resolving electoral disputes ahead of the upcoming elections.
