Petitioner seeks disqualification of politicians

Published Updated

A petitioner on Wednesday urged Lahore High Court to disqualify politicians including Nawaz Sharif, Chaudhry Shujaat Husain, Maulana Fazl-ur-Rehman and others for passing 20th Amendment in constitution. The petitioner, Chaudhry Fakhar, contended that all the politicians gathered on a one-point agenda: "corruption." He said the passage of such amendments by the parliament showed that politicians were not sincere to the country.
