Pakistan will go to the polls on February 8, 2024 for its general election.
The Election Commission of Pakistan has assigned 150 different symbols to registered political parties while 174 have been allotted to independent candidates.
All major political parties including Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) have kicked off campaigning, while the country’s most popular party – the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) – seems to be missing. While the former prime minister Imran Khan remains incarnated at Adiala Jail and out of election race, his PTI has been barred from using the party symbol in the upcoming elections.
