LAHORE: The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Tuesday gave last chance to Punjab Minister for Local Government and Community Development Aleem Khan to submit his reply on a petition seeking his disqualification as member of the Punjab Assembly (MPA).

A bench of the high court was hearing the petition filed by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) candidate from PP-158, Rana Ahsan Sharafat.

The petitioner contended before the court that “the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader concealed his tax returns in the nomination papers for the 2018 general elections thence ineligible to hold public office”. The petitioner further pleaded to disqualify the senior minister as an MPA.
