LAHORE: Punjab Chief Minister Shehbaz Sharif will appear before the Supreme Court on Sunday at 11:00am after being summoned by a three-member bench of the apex court in a suo motu case pertaining to non-provision of potable water in the province. “If we can summon Sindh’s chief minister over pollution, why should we not summon Punjab’s [chief minister]?” the CJP asked. It asked the provincial chief secretary to find out when Sharif would appear before the court. Following the provincial chief secretary’s statement, the top court adjourned the hearing until February 11. At the previous hearing, the top court summoned Zahid Saeed and reprimanded him over the lack of clean drinking water available in the province.
