‘No-Confidence Motion session’
The National Assembly session to vote on no-trust motion was prorogued after Deputy Speaker Qasim Khan Suri ruled to reject no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan over having links with the foreign conspiracy.
Fawad Chaudhry presented before the deputy speaker that the no-trust move was brought with the support of a foreign conspiracy and therefore the chair should give its ruling on the matter before deciding on the no-trust move.
The deputy speaker said it has been confirmed that the no-trust motion is being brought forward with the international conspiracy and therefore it has been rejected.
“The points raised by law minister are valid and the no-trust motion is against the constitution,” he said.
In an address to the nation later, Imran Khan called the no-trust motion against him a ‘foreign agenda’ and congratulated the nation over the motion rejected in the National Assembly.
“It was a foreign agenda, I want to tell the people don’t get disturb the God is looking over the nation,” PM Imran Khan said.
President of Pakistan Arif Alvi approved advice from Prime Minister Imran Khan regarding the dissolution of the National Assembly.
