The Election Commission of Pakistan is set to issue the notification of all successful candidates on Tuesday(today).
The notification regarding successful candidates against reserved seats will be issued on Wednesday.
The number of seats won by all political parties will, therefore, become clear by Tuesday.
According to the ECP, independent candidates will have to join a political party within three days of their notification. Previously, the speakers of the respective assemblies used to give three days to the successful independent candidates after taking their oath. Now under the Election Act 2017, the independents have to declare their party affiliation prior to oath taking. This has made easier for the ECP in deciding cases relating to disqualification of any member under the defection clause as he/she will become vulnerable to disqualification after submitting bonds to the ECP about their party affiliation.
The sessions of assemblies will be summoned after notifications of all successful candidates are issued.
