[GEO.TV] The Imran Khan![]() The Great Khan, who isn't your heaviest-duty thinker, maybe not even among the top five... -led Pakistain Tehrik-e-Insaf ...a political party in Pakistan. PTI was founded by former Pakistani cricket captain and philanthropist Imran Khan. The party's slogan is Justice, Humanity and Self Esteem, each of which is open to widely divergent interpretations.... (PTI) has announced approaching the Supreme Court (SC) to challenge the rejection of nomination papers of top party leaders. Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, who became PTI chairman when intra-party elections were nixed by the Election Commission of Pakistain (ECP), has strongly criticised the ’rejection of nomination papers of 380 PTI candidates’ ahead of the general elections slated for February 8, 2024. While talking to Geo News programme ’Naya Pakistain’ on Sunday, he stressed that the former ruling party had already recommended appointing judicial officers to deal with the electoral affairs. He also claimed that the nomination papers of mostly PTI leaders were rejected by the ECP, whereas, overall 550 candidates from other political parties faced rejection during scrutiny. The erstwhile PTI chairman admitted that the nomination papers of some candidates were rejected on a technical basis. However, we can't all be heroes. Somebody has to sit on the curb and applaud when they go by... he alleged that an individual who filed an objection to Sanam Javed’s nomination was unaware of the details. |
