Reserved seats: application filed in LHC for implementation of SC’s verdict

The petitioner noted that an eight-member bench of the Supreme Court had already provided a detailed judgement on the matter, which clarified the allocation of reserved seats. “The detailed decision of the Supreme Court has come, yet it remains unimplemented,” the petitioner said.

The petitioner also highlighted that letters had been issued to the speakers of all four provincial assemblies, urging them to act upon the decision. However, the matter remains unresolved. The petitioner specifically pointed out that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) has not yet received its reserved seats, despite the court’s ruling.

“The court should order the allocation of the reserved seats to PTI, as per the Supreme Court’s decision,” the petitioner demanded. The petitioner further requested that the court instruct PTI to ensure the implementation of the decision regarding these seats.
