Major win for PTI as Supreme Court rules party eligible for reserved seats
In major legal victory for PTI, Supreme Court declares party eligible for reserved seats
The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Friday declared Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) eligible for seats reserved for women and minorities, dealing a major setback to Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s ruling coalition.
The verdict was announced by a 13-member bench of the top court, headed by Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa.
A day ago, the court had reserved its decision on the matter after closing the hearing on a set of appeals moved by the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) against the denial of reserved seats for women and non-Muslims to it by the Peshawar High Court (PHC) and the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).
PTI-backed candidates, who had contested and won the February 8 elections as independents after their party was stripped of its election symbol, had joined the SIC to form a coalition of convenience.
The top court on Friday annulled the decision of the PHC while also declaring the decision of the election regulator null and void, terming it against the Constitution of Pakistan.
“[The] withdrawal of election symbol cannot disqualify a political party from elections,” the court declared. “The PTI was and is a political party.”
The decision, announced by Justice Mansoor Ali Shah, was made based on a majority of eight judges.
The majority verdict was given by Justice Mansoor Ali Shah, Justice Shahid Waheed, Justice Ayesha Malik, Justice Irfan Saadat, Justice Athar Minallah, Justice Muneeb Akhtar, Justice Hasan Azhar Rizvi, and Justice Muhammad Ali Mazhar.
PTI celebrates victory, demands CEC Raja’s immediate resignation
Reacting to the verdict, PTI members lauded the top court’s decision. A post from the PTI’s official X account demanded the immediate resignation of Chief Election Commissioner Sikander Sultan Raja for “violating [the] Constitution of Pakistan”.
PTI leader and former KP finance minister Taimur Khan Jhagra congratulated Imran Khan and PTI supporters on the Supreme Court’s decision.
“We are on the right side of history, as difficult as that may be. The fight will go on,” he wrote on X, adding that there were “serious questions on the malafide intent” of the ECP.
Imran Khan’s former aide Fawad Chaudhry echoed the party account’s sentiments, also demanding the resignation of the chief election commissioner in a post on X. He said the PTI should “demand ECP resignation after SCP has now official charge-sheeted ECP”.
Former human rights minister Shireen Mazari also took to X to celebrate the verdict. “Justice served, but all the minority opinions incl [sic] the one CJP read out sounded confused at best unlike the clarity of the majority 8 mbr [sic] order!” she wrote.
Acting President PTI Punjab Hammad Azhar took to X and lauded the “eight principled judges” who “broke the chain of oppression and cruelty despite intense pressure”. He added that the remaining judges should release Imran Khan and “all other innocent leaders and workers, end the forgery of Form 47, and restore democracy and human rights in the country”.
Party spokesman Raoof Hassan also extended his “hearty congratulations” to the PTI on X, lauding the Supreme Court for “breaking the barriers of intimidation”. “This is only the beginning of a long haul till we reach the final destination when Imran Khan shall take over as the Prime Minister of Pakistan,” he said. “Soon, very soon.”
The reserved seats issue
In a 4-1 verdict in March, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) had ruled that the SIC was not entitled to claim quota for reserved seats “due to having non-curable legal defects and violation of a mandatory provision of submission of party list for reserved seats”.
