PTI celebration, SC verdict, Imran Khan

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has displayed its street power once again after the Supreme Court (SC) announced its verdict in the favour of Pervaiz Elahi, the joint candidate of PTI and Pakistan Muslim League Quaid (PML-Q) for the Punjab Chief Minister (CM) slot.

Last night, the Supreme Court (SC) declared Hamza Shahbaz’s oath illegal and ordered him to leave office immediately. The 11-page verdict was written by Chief Justice Umar Atta Bandial after a three-member bench heard the case. The top court also nullified Hamza’s provincial cabinet.

According to the SC verdict, the appointments made by Hamza Shehbaz as Punjab CM were declared null and void, and the decisions in the public interest will remain intact.

It is another major defeat for the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) in its stronghold after the Punjab by-polls in the hands of PTI. Following PTI’s victory, the political workers came out of their houses for celebrations.

In a series of Twitter message, PTI chief and former prime minister Imran Khan said, “I appreciate our SC judges for standing firm & upholding the Constitution & law, against all manner of threats & abuse. I want to thank Barrister Ali Zafar & his team. I want to thank the people of Punjab for coming out in unprecedented numbers in bye elections against rigging.”

He announced, “Tomorrow evening we will offer thanks to Allah & celebrate with all the people of Pakistan who have stood by us in our campaign for Haqeeqi Azadi, coming out in massive numbers to show support.”

In a latest tweet, Khan said, “I want to thank the nation for coming out spontaneously last evening in support of the SC decision upholding Constitution & the Law. Tonight I will address our people at 10:00pm giving them our way forward for a sovereign Pakistan.”
