MUHAMMAD ARIF CHAUDHARY versus ELECTION TRIBUNAL

Punjab Local Councils (Election Petitions) Rules 1979, 11th and 12th Constitution of Pakistan (1973), Article 185 (3) re-counting of votes from the electoral unit was approved during the hearing of the election petition, the respondents voted. The re-counting was objected to on the basis that their valid ballot papers could not be inspected during the re-enumeration because the other party did not make such a request in their written statement nor did they claim. Is it that the election tribunal again accepted the objection which was upheld by the High Court in the constitutional petition? A recalculation order was approved, leaving no room for restriction or conditional or partial restriction and, as was the case of recalculation, a full leave of appeal was allowed. It should be noted that in the application of counting accuracy, the applicant could not possibly have requested the error of count and these two petitions were mutually destructive, contradictory and irreversible.
