The ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had suffered a major setback as its arch-rival JUI-F managed to grab the highest number of seats in the city, tehsil councils, village and neighbourhood councils.
Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) had formulated a phase-wise strategy for the upcoming local bodies elections in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab and the next general elections in the country with PM Imran Khan personally monitoring ticket distribution among the aspiring candidates.
Imran Khan had dissolved all organizations of the PTI and removed all office bearers from their positions after a number of serving ministers and lawmakers from the ruling party found responsible for defeat in the first phase of the KP LG polls.

In a development today, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) decided to delay the second phase of local government elections in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) until March.
