The Punjab government on Monday apprised the Lahore High Court (LHC) that the local government elections will be held on a party basis and will feature the issuance of party tickets.
Appearing before the court during a case hearing pertaining to multiple petitions filed against the Local Government Act 2025, the Punjab’s assistant advocate general told Justice Sultan Tanveer Ahmed that the local government department has submitted its report before the LHC.
The development relates to the Election Commission of Pakistan’s (ECP) October decision to hold the LG polls in the province under the Punjab Local Government Act, 2025.
