Lahore (HRNW) The Lahore High Court (LHC) has nominated National Assembly Speaker Raja Pervaiz Ashraf to administer oath to Punjab Chief Minister-elect Hamza Shahbaz Sharif after hearing the third petition from him on the issue.
The chief minister-elect approached the court on Friday to seek the administration of oath to him by “a person nominated by the court” as, he said, President Alvi and Punjab Governor Omar Sarfraz Cheema had adopted a “defiant attitude” in response to earlier court orders.
Justice Jawad, who heart the petition, remarked that it had now become a question of judiciary’s honor.
He said that no one could have the courage to defy court order.
However, the judge also said that he would rule in accordance with the law and constitution.
