Political career

[edit | edit source]

She was elected to the Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as a candidate of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on a reserved seat for women in the 2013 Pakistani general election.[2][3] In September 2013, she was made Parliamentary Secretary of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Assembly[4] for Population Welfare.[5]

In May 2016, Sher joined a resolution to establish a Women's Caucus in the Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.[6][7]

She was re-elected to the Provincial Assembly of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa as a candidate of PTI on a reserved seat for women in the 2018 Pakistani general election and quit the PTI on 24 May 2023 due to pressure of Army Chief Asim Munir.[1]

On 13 May 2024, the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) suspended her membership as a member of the Provincial Assembly of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa.[8] This action followed a Supreme Court of Pakistan decision to suspend the verdict of the Peshawar High Court, which had denied the allocation of a reserved seat to the PTI-Sunni Ittehad Council bloc.[9]
