The Lahore High Court lifted the stay order on the election for the chairman of the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday.
The elections for the chairman were supposed to be held on June 27 at the PCB headquarters in Lahore. However, stay orders from multiple courts in the country, which included the Balochistan High Court, resulted in the election being postponed.
It must be noted that the Lahore High Court on Tuesday stayed the election of the chairman of the PCB after suspending the notification of the Board of Governors (BoG).
The court issued notices to the federal government, the cricket board's election commissioner and others.
In the petition of Malik Zulifqar, it was contended that Chief Election Commissioner Shahzad Farooq Rana had made several changes to the list of the BoGs, which was finalised by the interim management committee on June 20. It said that the act of the chief election commissioner was illegal.
The petition implored the court for a stay order in this regard, which was granted by the court.
Earlier, the PCB postponed the elections for its new chairman after a stay order was issued by the Balochistan High Court's two-member bench last week.
Chief Justice Naeem Akhtar Afghan and Justice Amir Nawaz issued an order to stop the elections till July 17.
In view of the Eid-ul-Adha holidays and the two weeks of summer vacation for the court, the court will resume listening to the arguments on July 17.
