      The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) has not restored reserved seats to the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) or its allied party, the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC). Instead, following a Supreme Court verdict, the ECP has distributed the reserved seats previously earmarked for the PTI/SIC to other political parties, primarily the ruling coalition.
      Here’s a breakdown of the recent developments:
      * Supreme Court’s Verdict (June 27, 2025): A 7-3 majority ruling by a Constitutional Bench of the Supreme Court overturned its own previous judgment (July 12, 2024) that had declared the PTI eligible for reserved seats. This new decision effectively stated that the PTI (or the SIC, which PTI-backed independents joined) was not entitled to reserved seats because of “non-curable legal defects and violation of a mandatory provision of submission of party list for reserved seats.” This decision essentially meant PTI was no longer considered a parliamentary party for the purpose of reserved seats.
      * ECP’s Decision (July 2, 2025): Following the Supreme Court’s verdict, the ECP proceeded to distribute the 77 reserved seats (for women and non-Muslims) in the National Assembly and provincial assemblies that were previously claimed by the SIC/PTI.
      * Distribution of Seats (National Assembly): According to legal experts, of the 22 reserved seats in the National Assembly, the distribution is as follows:
      * Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N): 15 seats
      * Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP): 4 seats
      * Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F): 3 seats
      * Distribution of Seats (Provincial Assemblies):
      * Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly: 10 seats to JUI-F, 7 to PML-N, 6 to PPP, and one each to PTI-Parliamentarians and Awami National Party.
      This redistribution of reserved seats has significantly strengthened the ruling coalition, allowing them to achieve a two-thirds majority in the National Assembly.
