LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) core committee has demanded the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) to allot bat as an election symbol, ARY News reported.<\/strong><\/p>\n

As per details, the core committee of PTI has expressed disappointment with delay in the allotment of election symbol saying if bat is not allotted to PTI, it will make the elections non-transparent.<\/p>\n

The core committee also urged the ECP to ensure a level playing field for all parties before the general elections.<\/p>\n

Earlier, the Election Commission had served a notice to the party with regard to the party\u2019s internal restructuring and intra-party elections.<\/p>\n
