In the petition, Yousufzai has pleaded the ECP to declare the intra-party election null and void and order fresh election under ECP.
He has taken the plea that the election were held by suspending the original constitution of the party. Therefore, the intra-party polls were illegal and hence should be declared null and void.
Earlier this month, PTI’s intra-party polls were held, which were won by the ‘Insaf Panel’ led by Imran Khan.
According to Swati, the Insaf Panel received 189,055 votes while the Ehtesab Panel bagged 41,647 votes.
The Insaf Panel included the present PTI leadership, while its opposing Ehtesab Panel had little known PTI members competing against the party’s bigwigs.
