Announcing that the elections will take place next month, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) accepted nomination papers during August 28-30. Thirty seats across 19 provincial and 11 National Assembly constituencies have been lying vacant. The seats remain unrepresented because of no voting in some constituencies in the elections held on July 25, or successful candidates having vacated seats.
