The seat fell vacant after Speaker National Assembly Asad Qaiser resigned minutes before voting on the no-confidence motion against Imran Khan on last Saturday night.
The vote on the no-confidence motion against National Assembly’s Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri will be held on April 22.
The opposition had submitted a no-confidence resolution against Qasim Suri on last Friday, a day before voting on a no-trust motion against the Prime Minister scheduled to take place.
The resolution, addressed to the secretary of the National Assembly Secretariat, was submitted by the PML-N’s Murtaza Javed Abbasi.
