The hearing of the Election Commission’s review petition against the decision to hold elections in Punjab will be held in the Supreme Court of Pakistan today.
A 3-member bench headed by Chief Justice of Pakistan Umar Ata Bandial will hold the hearing at 12 noon.
Justice Ejaz-ul-Ahsan and Justice Muneeb Akhtar will be part of this bench.
Election Commission lawyer Sujeel Swati will continue arguments today.
In the previous hearings, the federal government, the caretaker Punjab government and the Election Commission have submitted their responses.
The Supreme Court had ordered to hold elections in Punjab on May 14 while giving its verdict on April 4.
Despite the passing of the deadline of May 14, the court order could not be implemented.
