The petitioners’ counsel submitted that, before accepting the resignations, the speaker did not hold inquiry as per Constitution. He further submitted that the petitioners did not appear before the speaker for acceptance of their resignations. The speaker could not accept the resignations of members without hearing their stance, he contended. The court, after hearing arguments of the petitioners’ counsel, suspended the orders of the commission of de-notifying the petitioners and sought reply from respondents.
Last month, the Election Commission had de-notified the 43 MNAs on a summary forwarded by the speaker National Assembly. The Speaker National Assembly Raja Pervaiz Ashraf, after accepting resignations of 43 MNAs, had forwarded the summary to the commission for further action, as per law.
