Islamabad, March 29: Sheikh Rasheed Ahmad, Pakistan’s interior minister, stated on Tuesday that the National Assembly will begin debating the no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan on March 31 and vote on it on April 3.
The information was given by the Minister during a press conference in Islamabad. According to the sources, Rasheed restated his support for the Prime Minister while also dismissing allegations of a schism inside the PML-Q over the party’s support for the current PTI administration on the no-trust vote.
“After the peaceful public gathering, now the containers which were put for security have been removed and roads are cleared for traffic,” said the Interior Minister.
“The massive crowd that gathered at the PM rally suggests that the entire country stands by the PM,” he added.
The proceedings were deferred until March 31 after a no-confidence motion against Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan was tabled in the National Assembly with a total of 161 votes in favour.
On March 8, the Opposition parties filed a motion of no confidence in the government. Because several PTI legislators have come out openly against Prime Minister Imran Khan, the Opposition is certain that its motion will be passed.
