ECP terminates PML-N MPA's membership
The decision was taken by an election tribunal on rigging allegations leveled against the MPA. The ECP issued a notification in this regard after the tribunal's decision.
The ECP also restored the membership of another Punjab assembly member, PML-N's Tariq Mehmood Bajwa (PP-170). Bajwa, who had earned a BA from Bahauddin Zakariya University, had earlier been accused of having a fake degree.
His membership was restored after the Supreme Court decided in his favour.

@ Adnan Siddiqui Jahangir Tareen? Legislator? Stay order? Really? Jahangir Tareen's constituency NA-154 is one of the four constituency that PTI is asking for thumb verification for the past one year. Senseless worshiper you said and you were right.
Memberships of several parliamentarians of many parties have been terminated on rigging and bogus degree issues. No-one of mainstream parties like PML-N, PPP, PTI, PML-Q and MQM are spared. Many cases are pending against MNAs & MPAs of these and other parties. Almost all parties and candidates try to manipulate elections. Rigging takes place from all sides in Pakistan.
@Kaleem Ullah: The last sentence in your comment is already being practiced by N League day and night.
The news of restoration does not get a headline but termination does get it. well that's business of media anyway.
But I thought the ecp is useless and doesn't work. Isn't that the whole point of the most pointless long march in history? To browbeat the judiciary into taking up a case it cannot constitutionally rule on except in appeal?
@Ad Several ?. Except ONE, which I even doubt. Where are other ?? Stop FOOLING people here
Another question begging to be asked from the senseless worshipers of a personality cult - Why is it that the likes of Shafqat Mehmood, Sheeda, Jehangir Tareen and a host of other PTI legislators have invoked stay orders against PML-N candidates for election fraud and rigging? In case it is too much to fathom for y'alls pea brains, PML-N lodged a total of 66 complaints with ECP and only a handful have been disposed till date.
An MPA terminated. Hence proved, Elections 2013 was biggest fraud in history of Pakistan. Hence, we demand new elections and let IK be our PM forever. Leave democracy, just do what we want.
@Ali Ahmad: Should I remind u how many of PTI were sent packing by the election tribunals ?
Rigging takes place from all sides. Even if one sided magnitude is rarely so large that it can change results significantly.
@Ali Ahmad:
And what does this constitute? The guy got canned for an irregularity and has been punished. In case you don't remember, several legislators of PTI have also been sent packing.
Where are N league paid trolls ??.
Whoever say that IK is wrong. You better check your brain
Fair elections of 2013.
