The case was heard at the Peshawar High Court regarding gatherings in educational institutions and government spaces that were deemed irrelevant. Justice Sahibzada Asadullah issued a five-page decision in the matter, banning such gatherings on the premises of government institutions.
According to the petitioner’s lawyer, these irrelevant gatherings in schools, colleges, and universities are unconstitutional. The decision emphasises that the responsibility for the appropriate use of government facilities lies with the relevant officers. Educational and government institutions should only be used for the purposes for which they were established.
