Peshawar High Court on Wednesday restrained elected members of reserved seats from oath taking on a petition of the SIC. The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Tuesday notified allocation of reserved seats for women and minorities, which were claimed by PTI-backed Sunni Ittehad Council (SIC), to other political parties. The move came a day after the electoral body rejected the SIC petition, seeking allocation of reserved seats following a merger with Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
