PTI will challenge the election commission's decision in the Peshawar High Court by filing a writ petition. The party's plea to have a cricket bat as the electoral symbol for the general elections was rejected by a five-member panel of the Election Commission of Pakistan. PTI lawyer Mohammad Muazzam Butt stated that the ECP's verdict was a 'legally flawed' decision and the commission had failed to serve justice. The ECP declared the PTI ineligible to obtain an election symbol, making them unable to contest the upcoming general elections.
