The Supreme Court of Pakistan has accepted the appeal filed by the Election Commission of Pakistan against the decision of the Peshawar High Court, which reinstated the 'Bat' as the electoral symbol for the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).A three-member bench of the apex court headed by Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa and comprising Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar and Justice Musarrat Hilali in its verdict set aside Peshawar High Court's decision. Consequently, the electoral symbol of 'Bat' for PTI has been stripped of.Earlier, on the 22nd of last month, the Election Commission had stripped PTI of its electoral symbol of 'Bat' for the general elections, citing the party's failure to conduct intra-party polls in accordance with election laws.Subsequently, PTI approached the Peshawar High Court, seeking the restoration of its electoral symbol, and the court ruled in favor of PTI, reinstating the 'Bat' as the party's electoral symbol."Source: Radio Pakistan
