PESHAWAR, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 23rd Apr, 2024) The opposition in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa assembly had moved court against approval of provincial budget by the cabinet.

The court had accepted the writ petition for a hearing to be conducted by Justice Ejaz Anwar and Justice Shahid Khan.

The leader of opposition Dr Ibbdullah said in his petition that the government had gotten approval of the provincial budget from the cabinet under Article 125 of the constitution.
