ISLAMABAD :
The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) upcoming government will be heavily dependent on seven smaller parties as the final tally of seats of Imran Khan’s party in the National Assembly is almost equal to the combined strength of three main opposition groups.
The Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Saturday notified the members on reserved seats for women and non-Muslims in the National Assembly and four provincial assemblies proportionate to the number of seats different political parties won through direct election on July 25.
After the addition of reserved seats, the PTI has 158 seats in the National Assembly. It had won 116 seats in the polls and nine independents joined the PTI later. The PTI has got 28 reserved seats for women and five for non-Muslims.
However, it will have to vacate six seats — four out of five won by Imran Khan and one each by Sarwar Khan and Major (retd) Tahir Sadiq respectively – at the time of oath taking scheduled for August 13 (tomorrow).

Till the by-polls are held on those seats, the PTI would actually have 152 seats of its own in the lower house of parliament which elects the prime minister. There are 60 reserved seats for women and 10 for non-Muslims in the 342-member National Assembly.
Among the opposition parties, the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has 82 seat after the addition of 18 reserved seats — including 16 for women and two for non-Muslims, the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) has 53 seat with the addition of 11 reserved seats — nine for women and two for non-Muslims.
The Muttahida Majlis-e-Amal (MMA) now has 15 seats after the addition of three reserved seats — two for women and one for non- Muslim.
The combined strength of those three parties will be 150 — only two less than the PTI’s own strength at the time of formation of the government next week.
The PTI will be relying on seven parties to form the government. Those parties have the combined strength of 27 members.
