Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader Rana Sanaullah on Thursday deemed the Peshawar High Court’s (PHC) verdict “attack” on the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
Expressing his thoughts in Lahore, Sanaullah asserted: “The PHC’s single-bench verdict is a violation of the Election Act 2017. The judge’s cousin is contesting the elections on Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) ticket.”

Separately, PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif said: “The PHC’s ruling is tantamount to attacking the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP). How can the PHC announce a verdict on every matter in the country?"
Addressing a press conference in Karachi, the former prime minister expressed his resolve to take “everybody on board” in a bid to uplift the country. “It is fundamental to put out all-out efforts for the sake of the country’s prosperity,” he said.
Shehbaz Sharif welcomed the newcomers to the party. “I want to welcome those who have joined the PML-N. The friends from Sindh had joined the PML-N in large numbers".
