PESHAWAR: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan has challenged the imposition of emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the resolutions passed by both houses of Parliament and a joint sitting endorsing the move in the Peshawar High Court.
He has filed an application seeking amendments to his pending writ petition.
The application, filed by advocate Shah Faisal Ilyas, describes the imposition of emergency as unconstitutional and seeks suspension of the relevant government notification, or SRO, and annulment of the parliamentary resolutions.
The petitioner contended that President Asif Ali Zardari’s announcement on October 11, 2026, imposing emergency in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa under Article 234 of the Constitution was illegal and unconstitutional.
