The Lahore High Court (LHC) has cancelled the notification of appointment of Ziaullah Latif as Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Lahore Electric Supply Company (LESCO).
A bench of LHC on Tuesday heard the petition filed by former CEO LESCO Sharafat Siyal against appointment.
The petitioner was of the view that board of governor has authority to appoint the CEO but Ministry of Water and Power bypassing the board appointed Ziaullah Latif.
The LHC accepting the petition for hearing suspended the notification and directed the Ministry of Water and Power to submit a reply in this regard.
