A divisional bench of the high court will hear the petition, which challenges the federal government’s decision to impose emergency and governor’s rule in the province. The petition names the president, prime minister and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa governor as respondents.
The federal government imposed emergency and governor’s rule in the province on October 11, citing the deteriorating law and order situation and an increase in terrorist incidents.
PTI has challenged the decision in court, arguing against the federal government’s move. The high court will take up the matter at the scheduled hearing.
