Important clarification Re #NA148
No recount was done today and hence it is misleading to state that the Form 49 (Final Consolidated Result) declaring Yousaf Raza Gillani has been issued after a recount.
The only thing (and useful thing for us legally) that happened today was that the RO showed us (candidates and/or their representatives) the Form 45 of all polling stations received by him.
Courtesy this review, the purpose of which perhaps wasn’t clear to others, “dhandla” is as clear as day - eg. 711 and 713 votes rejected from the polling stations of my and my parents’ home polling stations whereas the average rejected vote in other polling stations across the constituency is less than 30. They couldn’t even spread the rejected votes in a hurry across all polling stations and concentrated on some polling stations only making it all even more ridiculous.
Pursuant to the exercise we now know exactly which polling stations are problematic (also most Form 45 showing massive rejected votes don’t even have the signatures of any candidates’ polling agents) - a fact that I have duly noted in my hand written application post the exercise and which has been duly reviewed and acknowledged by the RO.
After 10.5 hours at the RO office today, I have finally left with an attested copy of the unlawful Order declining my application for a recount in #NA148 wherein I had also clearly asked that Final Consolidated Result shouldn’t be issued. This too will be challenged.
Any decision built on an illegal act will always be unlawful and the Courts will view it and decide accordingly.
People’s mandate will win InshAllah.

@SShabbarZaidi This is misleading. Stanford, Yale or Oxford are not, presently, opening campuses in India. India is simply considering a draft legislation which will allow top foreign universities to establish a campus in India.
About time we demand that Judicial Commission of Pakistan’s meetings should be made public with members being responsible for their comments.
1/3rd of the Supreme Court needs to be appointed soon and the nation must know who is being appointed and why and who isn’t and why not.
Shocked & disappointed that the Judicial Commission decided to drop Justice Shan Gul’s name from confirmation list of LHC judges. Cambridge grad, law officer with multiple Govts, author of probably most reported judgments from the current batch. Devoted his career to this path.

Very honoured that #CourtingTheLaw's research paper on the legislative responses to #COVID19 has been listed by the Commonwealth Association of Legislative Counsel as the only private paper from #Pakistan🇵🇰 among official reports of govts across the world.

During the past month, many brilliant #law students from #Pakistan interned with us as part of the first batch of our summer #internship program. They worked together in different teams on policy projects and also supported our #legal#awareness efforts. (1/2)
