Submitting its response in the Supreme Court on Monday, the Pakistan Muslim League – Quaid (PML-Q) said the petition relating to sit-ins and extra-constitutional steps in the federal capital was not maintainable for hearing, adding that the May 2013 elections were rigged and that the court should review the constitutional status of the National Assembly.
Earlier last week, the apex court had directed leaders of political parties to submit their suggestions to end the ongoing political stalemate during the hearing of the plea against protests by the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and the Pakistan Awami Tehreek (PAT).
PML-Q’s counsel Abdul Raziq submitted the response on behalf of the party in the court today.
Maintaining a similar stance as the PAT, the PML-Q’s response said that holding sit-ins in the federal capital was a political matter in which the court should not intervene.
