Sharif had to step down as the head of the Pakistan Muslim League-waz after the apex court in its July 28 verdict disqualified him in the Pama Papers scandal. The former premier’s way to the presidency of his party was paved amid much uproar when during a September 22 session of Upper House of the Parliament (Sete), an amendment in the Election Bill 2017 was okayed by a single vote allowing a disqualified legislator to head a political party, Dawn online reported. The new law will be presented in the Lower House on Monday for fresh votes on the Sete’s amendments. It is expected to be passed easily as the ruling party has a majority in the house. After getting clearance from both the houses, the bill would go to President Mamnoon Hussain’s desk for endorsement, thus making it a law.
