      <title>PML-N becomes largest party in NA after seats redistribution</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330422470/pml-n-becomes-largest-party-in-na-after-seats-redistribution</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Three women’s reserved seats in the National Assembly are currently vacant, with two allotted to the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and one to the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F).&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PML-N is expected to send new nominations soon, while the JUI-F seat remains under judicial review.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The two PML-N seats became vacant after Sobia Shahid and Shehla Bano took oath as members of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The party is preparing to send new names to the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) for appointment to the vacant seats.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, the case concerning JUI-F’s Sadaf Ehsan’s reserved seat is currently pending in the Supreme Court, and any further action will be taken following the court’s decision.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Separately, PML-N leader Irum Hamid has been elected to the National Assembly on a women’s reserved seat vacated by Bushra Anjum Butt, who recently became a senator. Irum is expected to take the oath in the upcoming NA session.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Following the latest ECP notification on reserved seats, the total number of members in the National Assembly has reached 333.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The PML-N has become the largest party in the lower house with 123 seats, followed by the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) with 74 seats.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently, JUI-F holds 10 seats, while the Sunni Ittehad Council commands 80 seats in the lower house.&lt;/p&gt;
