SC Declares PTI Eligible for Reserved Seats: Major Victory for Party: Malik Yasir Imtiaz Awan

Awan praised the Supreme Court for its impartiality and resilience against intimidation, expressing optimism for PTI’s future political endeavors.

In a significant judicial ruling, the Supreme Court of Pakistan has declared Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) eligible for seats reserved for women and minorities in the National Assembly. This landmark decision, announced on Friday, July 12, 2024, marks a substantial victory for PTI and a considerable setback for the ruling coalition government led by Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif.

The 13-member bench, led by Chief Justice Qazi Faiz Isa, delivered an 8-5 verdict nullifying the Peshawar High Court’s previous order, which had upheld the Election Commission of Pakistan’s decision to deny the reserved seats to Sunni Itehad Council. Justice Mansoor Ali Shah read the verdict, asserting that the denial of an election symbol does not infringe upon a political party’s constitutional or legal rights to participate in elections and field candidates.

Malik Yasir Imtiaz Awan, Founder Member of PTI Middle East and former President of PTI United Arab Emirates, expressed his elation over the decision, congratulating PTI workers worldwide. He emphasized the steadfastness of PTI’s leadership, particularly Imran Khan, in challenging the Election Commission’s decision.

Awan concluded by envisioning a future where Imran Khan assumes the role of Prime Minister once again, affirming that this victory is just the beginning of PTI’s journey towards their ultimate political goals.
