Date1991-10-28
Judge(s)Malik Muhammad Qayyum
ResultPetition allowed

1. ' The application of the petitioner for transfer of vote was dismissed by the respondent on the ground that after 31st August, 1991, no such application can be entertained because the process of annual revision has been taken in hand. This Court in Akhtar Saleem v. Registration Officer etc. (W.P.No, 7740/91 PLD 1992 Lah. 34) has already taken the view that the respondent cannot refuse to entertain and decide the application for transfer of vote on this ground. The refusal is, therefore, clearly without any lawful authority.

2. In view of what has been said above, this petition is allowed and it is directed that if the petitioner files an application for transfer of vote, it shall be decided by the respondent without any delay on merits. No orders as to costs.
