PUNJAB OUTDOOR ADVERTISING ASSOCIATION, THROUGH SECRETARY versus GOVERNMENT OF PAKISTAN THROUGH SECRETARY, MINISTRY
Article 199 Constitution Petition to Increase Ad Tax Rates Applicants prayed that the authorities' actions to amend / increase ad tax rates three times in less than a year were unlawful, without discretion and jurisdiction. Be declared. Because no jurisdictional defect was brought home, so much so that officials were not qualified to accuse them of distrust. It is merely a claim that advertising tax rates were increased three times in a year, which was not a good reason for interference with constitutional jurisdiction. That no constitutional guarantees were identified in this regard that could potentially be infringed. The applicant's association or its members were under no obligation to take advantage of the facility of allowing external advertising by the authorities if they did not consider it to be a profitable offer because they always refused to take advantage of it. And claiming the rate hike was not set on record, with no prior effect beginning on the date of notification, no case for interference, after dismissal, the request was dismissed
