Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) Chairman Hamid Raza said on Wednesday that his party will put the next government to the test.
Speaking exclusively to Samaa TV, Raza said: “The misunderstanding was created from the letter penned to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP).”
“Our letter has nothing to do with the reserved seats,” Raza added.
– ECP reserves verdict on reserved seats allotment to SIC –
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) Wednesday reserved its verdict on pleas pertaining to the allotment of reserved seats to the Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC) wherein PTI backed independents joined on the party leadership decision after winning from their respective constituencies.
PTI took the decision after the PTI lost its electoral symbol in the run-up to the February 8 elections. PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan, lawyer Ali Zafar, and SIC Chairman Sahibzada Hamid Raza appeared before the electoral watchdog.
During the hearing, the ECP stated that the decision has been pending before the commission and also put on hold the notifications for the 10 reserved seats for women in the National Assembly and 21 reserved seats for women in the KP Assembly.
