In a dramatic turn of events, independent candidates backed by the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have emerged as frontrunners in the 2024 general elections concluded Thursday, according to provisional results trickling in from polling stations across the country.
With no single major political group securing an outright majority, the possibility of a coalition government looms large, as Pakistan’s electoral landscape, once dominated by established political groups like the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), witnesses a notable surge in the popularity of independent candidates supported by the PTI.
NATIONAL ASSEMBLY
Preliminary results, subject to verification and confirmation, indicate that independent candidates — many of whom are supported by the PTI — have secured the majority of national constituencies across the country.
Out of the total 265 National Assembly seats, provisional results from 253 constituencies have been received so far.
As per unofficial results, PTI-backed independents have emerged victorious in 100 constituencies, followed by the PML-N with 72 seats.
The PPP has secured the third position with win over 53 national constituencies, followed by the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) with 17, Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) with three, Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP) with two, Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) with two.
PROVINCIAL ASSEMBLIES
Preliminary results for the four provincial assemblies reveal that the PML-N has emerged as the single-largest party in Punjab, while the PPP leads in Sindh and the PTI dominates in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. In Balochistan, no single party comes to have a clear majority.
