The Election Commission of Pakistan has finally disclosed the outcomes of the much-debated general elections after a delay of three days. The results reveal the initial standings of all political parties in both national and provincial assemblies. Despite claims of victory from both Imran Khan`s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and Nawaz Sharif`s Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), a coalition government seems inevitable due to no single party securing a majority in the National Assembly.
The voting took place across 854 national and provincial assembly constituencies, with 348 independent candidates emerging victorious, a majority of whom were supported by Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf. PML-N emerged as the largest party with 227 seats, followed by the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) with 160 seats, and the Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) with 45 seats.
