Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) announced it would hold elections for 12 senate seats instead of 11 in March next year from Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP). The notification said the ECP would hold elections for one minority seat in addition to the 11 regular senate seats, following the promulgation of the Presidential ordinance to include one minority Senate seat each from each province. The minorities’ senate seat would go to the Awami National Party since it was held a majority in the KP assembly.
