LAHORE, Jan 12 (APP):The Lahore High Court (LHC) on Monday rejected a request seeking immediate suspension of the enforcement of the Kite Flying Act 2025 and summoned the concerned parties to present their arguments.
Further proceedings in the case were adjourned until January 16.
Justice Malik Muhammad Awais Khalid heard a petition filed by the Judicial Activism Panel.
Appearing on behalf of the petitioner, Advocate Azhar Siddique argued that the Kite Flying Act 2025 violates the fundamental principles of the Constitution. He maintained that kite flying is a dangerous and deadly activity and that allowing it poses serious risks to citizens’ lives.
He requested the court to declare the Kite Flying Act 2025 null and void and to stay its implementation until a final verdict on the petition.
However, the court dismissed the plea seeking immediate suspension of the Act.
Following the court’s order, the petitioner made the Kite Flying Association a party to the case. The court then adjourned further proceedings until January 16 and directed the government’s counsel to present arguments at the next hearing.
