In today's update on Rana Azeem, we delve into a significant legal victory for the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). The Supreme Court has declared PTI eligible for the allocation of reserved seats, overturning the Peshawar High Court's decision that supported the Election Commission of Pakistan's (ECP) ruling against PTI. Justice Mansoor Ali Shah announced the 8-5 majority verdict, with support from Justices Athar Minallah, Shahid Waheed, Muneeb Akhtar, Muhammad Ali Mazhar, Ayesha Malik, Syed Hassan Azhar Rizvi, and Irfan Saadat Khan. The court affirmed that the lack or denial of an election symbol does not affect a political party's constitutional or legal rights to participate in elections. The verdict set aside the PHC's judgment and declared the ECP's order to be ultra vires to the Constitution, without lawful authority, and of no legal effect. The full bench, led by Chief Justice Qazi Faez Isa, emphasized PTI's right to reserved seats. Stay tuned for more insights on this and other political developments.
