RAWALPINDI: Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) lawmaker and noted columnist Ayaz Amir filed an appeal in an election tribunal on Monday against the rejection of his nomination papers by a Returning Officer (RO).
The appeal, seeking clearance of his nomination papers, was filed before a tribunal headed by judge of the Lahore High Court (LHC) Rawalpindi Bench, Justice Mamoon Rashid Sheikh.
Amirs nomination papers for his constituency NA-60 in Chakwal were rejected because he allegedly wrote articles against the ideology of Pakistan.
The PML-N leader pleaded for his candidature and claimed that he did not write any objectionable article.
Nasrullah Jalal of All Pakistan Muslim League (APML), whose papers were rejected from NA-55 Rawalpindi, also filed an appeal. He maintained that the objections raised on his candidature were baseless.
The tribunal fixed the hearing of the appeals on April 10 and issued notices to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP), the respective Returning Officers and other relevant authorities.
