The Constitution Of Islamic Republic Of Pakistan QUESTION #9373
Question 1
Regarding the Senate's composition after the 25th Amendment, how many total members does the Senate consist of?
  • 104
  • 96✔️
  • 108
  • 84
Correct Answer Explanation
Article 59(1) as amended by the 25th Amendment 2018 reduced Senate membership from 104 to 96, removing FATA seats. The 96 members come from 4 provinces (14 general + 4 women + 4 technocrats + 4 non-Muslims each = 26 per province × 4 = 104 minus the FATA seats = 96)... specifically: each province elects 14 general, 4 women, 4 technocrats; plus Federal Capital: 2 general + 1 woman + 1 technocrat; and 4 non-Muslims from provinces = total 96.
