LHC forms bench to hear Punjab property law pleas

The chief justice of the Lahore High Court (LHC) has constituted a full bench to hear petitions challenging the Punjab Property Ownership Law. The three-member bench — headed by Chief Justice Aalia Neelum and comprising Justice Muhammad Jawad Zafar and Justice Abher Gul Khan—will begin hearing the petitions against the  Property Ownership Law from February 23. On Dec 22, the LHC issued an interim order, suspending the operation of the newly enacted Punjab Protection of Ownership of Immovable Property Ordinance, 2025, which empowered deputy commissioner-led committees to decide property disputes.
