Former PM Shahid Khaqan Abbasi registers new political party, Awaam Pakistan, in Pakistan.

The Election Commission of Pakistan has officially registered Shahid Khaqan Abbasi's new political party, Awaam Pakistan, after recognizing its intra-party elections. Abbasi, a former prime minister, was elected convener, with Miftah Ismail as secretary. The party's registration brings the total number of political parties in Pakistan to 168. Awaam Pakistan aims to prioritize ability over electability and has attracted several political figures from other major parties, including Chaudhary Inam Zafar and ten female leaders from PML-N, PPP, and PTI. This development is expected to change the political landscape in Rawalpindi.
