PTI Chairman Gohar Ali Khan moved the Peshawar High Court (PHC) on October 14 against the imposition of emergency and governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, requesting the court to declare the October 11 emergency proclamation unconstitutional. Advocate Shah Faisal Ilyas submitted the petition on behalf of Khan, who argued that the proclamation was "unconstitutional, ultra vires, coram non judice, tainted with malice in law and fact, devoid of objective material, and of no legal effect." The petitioner urged the PHC to set aside the emergency proclamation. This move highlights ongoing political tension regarding governance in KP.
