Does caretaker govt want to derail election: IHC
ISLAMABAD (Online): Islamabad High Court (IHC) has allowed meeting between PTI founder and PTI chairman under the supervision of Superintendent Adiala Jail.
Justice Miangul Hassan Aurangzeb has remarked horrendous system is running under caretaker government. According permission for consultation in connection with general election is basic right.
He further remarked does the care government want to derail the election.
He gave these remarks while hearing the petition filed by chairman PTI and other lawyers in connection with permission for meeting and consultation with PTI founder Friday.

The court ordered that meeting between chairman PTI and founder PTI be arranged under supervision of superintendent Adiala jail.
The court remarked permission for consultation in connection with the general election is basic right. The caretaker government should be impartial in the election. Opposing consultation between PTI chairman and PTI founder by the care taker government raises question on its neutrality.
