RAWALPINDI: Finding anomalies in the delimitation process in ward numbers 5 and 6 of the Cantonment Board (CCB), the Lahore High Court (LHC) Rawalpindi bench on Friday directed the civic body to restart the demarcation process. The court issued the directives on a petition filed by a local leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and former councillor Raja Jahandad, who said that the CCB has intermingled voters of ward 5 and ward 6 while carrying out the delimitation process. While accepting the petition, Justice Ijaz Ahmed of the LHC Rawalpindi bench directed the chief executive officer of the CCB to rectify the anomalies in the two wards.
