Justices Jamal Mandokhail raised concerns over independent lawmakers aligning with a party absent from parliament. The CB resumed hearing of a set of review pleas against the top court's ruling that had declared the PTI eligible for reserved seats.

In its July 12, 2024 short order, eight out of 13 judges ruled that 39 out of a list of 80 Members of the National Assembly (MNAs) were and are the returned candidates of the PTI, setting it to emerge as the single largest party in the Lower House of Parliament.
