We could not understand the logic behind rejecting Shaikh Rasheed’s petition by the supreme court to have the election in the NA-60 constituency as planned.
Yesterday, Islamabad High Court gave the verdicts similar to this.
We also don’t approve the satirical remarks by the chief justice that Shaikh Rasheed is contesting the election from another constituency also we will see his popularity or his election results over there. This is not the prerogative of the chief justice to comment on Shaikh Rasheed’s ability or anybody else for that matter to win or not to win the election. We believe this is a political statement. If chief justice doesn’t like him don’t vote for him.
The reason for rejecting the petition, we learned through news media is that the people of the constituency should not be deprived of electing their representative. In other words, we conclude that chief justice wants Sharif mafia’s representative should participate in the election from that constituency. We don’t think this is the chief justice to ask or expect or ensure Sharif mafia or any other political party must nominate his candidate in any given constituency.
We believe this is wrong and against the constitution. If we accept the chief justice’s logic of not conducting the election simply because Sharif mafia’s candidate Hanif Abbasi has been disqualified for election then why the same principle did not apply to other constituencies, of Maryam Nawaz, Mohd Safdar both of Sharif mafia party (PMLN) and Manzoor Wasan (PPP). That proves there is an anomaly in the verdict of the supreme court.
We are afraid supreme court will let the nation down by not giving the verdicts according to the constitution and its equal application to everyone.
