On the 25th, the fate of Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan was tested

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan National Assembly Speaker Asad Kaiser on Sunday announced that he would call a session of the Assembly on March 25 to accept a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan. Voting will take place within three to seven days after the lower house deliberates on the opposition’s no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan and passes a formal resolution by the House.

About 100 MPs from the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and the Pakistan People’s Party filed a no-confidence motion in the National Assembly Secretariat on March 7, accusing the Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government of economic crisis and rising inflation. The parliament’s secretariat issued a statement on Sunday clarifying the status quo, which the opposition had called for by March 21.

The session is set to convene at 11 a.m. Friday and will be the 71st session of the current National Assembly. Bachchan is calling for a session of parliament under the provisions of sections 56 (3) and 256 of the Constitution of Pakistan. Opposition parties have stated they will not run in the by-elections. But Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid told a news conference that it could be delayed due to “extraordinary circumstances”. The issue’s end has the recaptured Doomsday in the control of the Islamic Republic of Iran and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Opposition groups called for a boycott of the assembly in protest of a new constitution. The United Nations, however, has made its position clear that Pakistan’s political turmoil will not be allowed to influence the incident in any way.
