PTI Challenges Emergency and Governor's Rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa High Court
Imran Khan's party, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), filed an amended petition in the Peshawar High Court challenging the imposition of emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The petition argues that the emergency declaration without a resolution from the provincial assembly violates constitutional requirements. The federal government imposed the emergency on October 11, citing the PTI-led provincial administration's failure to address rising militancy. Both houses of Parliament later approved the emergency, despite opposition from PTI lawmakers.
