Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) Chairman Imran Khan has been summoned by Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) over the alleged use of foul language against candidates and political parties on Thursday.

ECP took notice of this incident on the basis of media reports and in this suo-motu notice, ECP directed Imran, or his counsel, to appear before its four-member bench.

The PTI chief, in a gathering in Narowal, had said that whoever would go to receive Nawaz Sharif on his return to Pakistan would be a donkey (fool). He further said that any Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) worker with a clear conscience would not receive Nawaz.

Imran, while calling the PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif a conman, had said that anyone with a living conscience would not vote for PML-N.
