Overview
- A Lahore High Court election tribunal led by Judge Rana Zahid Mahmood dismissed the challenge, keeping the ECP notification in force.
- The official February 8, 2024 result remains Sharif with 179,310 votes and Rashid with 104,485 in Lahore’s NA-130.
- Rashid alleged mishandling by the ECP and claimed the consolidated Form-47 conflicted with polling-station Form-45.
- The tribunal threw out the petition on technical grounds rather than conducting a full merits review.
- FAFEN tracking indicates many post-election petitions are still pending nationwide, making this one ruling in a broader, ongoing process.
