The petition named the federation of Pakistan, province of Punjab, Punjab IG Police Dr Usman Anwar, Punjab Anti-Corruption Establishment DG, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, Punjab caretaker Chief Minister Syed Mohsin Naqvi, National Accountability Bureau, Federal Investigation Agency, Pakistan Electronic Media Regulatory Authority and Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) as respondents.
