00:00 Raja Mohsin, our representative is with us. Raja Mohsin Ajaz, tell us what has been said in the decision?
00:05 Look, it is not possible that two high courts will be held at the same time.
00:11 The decision of Peshawar High Court has been rejected by the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
00:20 And the appeal of the Election Commission of Pakistan against the decision of Peshawar High Court has been accepted by the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
00:28 And this brief order was announced by the Chief Justice of Pakistan a while ago in the Chamber of Justice.
00:34 And it has also been said that the detailed reasons and the detailed decision will be issued later.
00:40 A while ago, the Chief Justice of Pakistan said in his brief remarks that the written copy of this decision will be uploaded on the website of the Supreme Court of Pakistan.
00:52 When this hearing was going on, detailed arguments were given by all parties in this regard.
01:00 And at about 7.30 pm, the decision of this case was secured.
01:04 And when this decision was secured, a long wait was followed.
01:08 This decision was secured at about 7.30 pm.
01:10 And at 11.25 pm, this brief decision was brought to the Bench Chamber of Court No. 1 and was heard by it.
01:18 In light of this, the result is that the Chief Justice of Pakistan will not get a voter's vote.
01:24 The Chief Justice of Pakistan will not participate in the elections as a political party on one voter's vote, which is taking place on 8th February.
01:30 And along with this, the decision of Peshawar High Court was also rejected.
01:34 In the brief decision, it was also said that the case that the Supreme Court of Pakistan brought to the Peshawar High Court,
01:42 was not considered by the PTI's intra-party, nor was it heard by the Peshawar High Court.
01:54 And now, in light of this brief decision from the Supreme Court of Pakistan,
01:59 the Chief Justice of Pakistan will not participate in the elections on 8th February as a political party on one voter's vote.
02:08 The position of the Election Commission of Pakistan regarding the elections of the Chief Justice of Pakistan has been accepted.
02:15 And the decision of the Peshawar High Court regarding the election symbol of the Chief Justice of Pakistan,
02:20 which was appealed against by the Election Commission of Pakistan, has now been accepted.
02:26 And the voter's vote will not be given to the Chief Justice of Pakistan.
02:31 During the hearing, on one occasion, Baris Ali Zafar, who was representing the PTI,
02:35 was also asked to give him any symbol.
02:39 He is not asking for any specific symbol, that is, if he is given any other symbol other than the vote,
02:44 but he is allowed to participate in the elections on one symbol as a political party.
02:50 However, this did not happen, and the appeal of the Election Commission of Pakistan was accepted.
02:56 The decision of the Peshawar High Court was rejected.
02:58 The election of the PTI, which was not accepted by the Election Commission of Pakistan,
03:04 has been rejected.
03:06 The position of the Election Commission of Pakistan has been accepted,
03:09 whereas the position of the PTI regarding the elections was not accepted.
03:15 And now the PTI will not be able to participate in the elections on one symbol as a political party.
03:21 The Supreme Court of Pakistan will issue detailed reasons for this later.
03:25 However, important remarks were given by the Chief Justice of Pakistan.
03:29 He said that the political party that wants to get a level playing field,
03:34 the level playing field of the PTI is pending in the Supreme Court.
03:38 In the same context, he said that you are not giving your party members a level playing field,
03:45 when you are asking for a level playing field outside.
03:47 It is not possible that your party does not have a democracy and you demand it from outside.
03:52 This level playing field cannot be two-sided.
03:55 This is a principle of democracy.
03:59 It is also not possible that the Election Commission of Pakistan has targeted the PTI.
04:05 Because the first notice issued to the PTI regarding the elections of the intra-party was issued in 2021,
04:15 when the PTI was in power in the central and provinces.
