mran Khan no-trust vote LIVE updates: National Assembly session on Pakistan PM’s fate resumes; govt files review petition against SC verdict

Meanwhile, Pakistani media reported that the Imran Khan government has filed a review petition against the Supreme Court’s verdict on the Deputy Speaker’s ruling over the no-trust motion in the National Assembly.

In line with a landmark Supreme Court order, the National Assembly’s session for voting on the no-confidence motion against Khan began in the morning.

The Opposition parties need 172 members in the 342-member house to orchestrate the downfall of Prime Minister Khan. They have garnered the support of more than the needed strength with the help of some allies of the ruling coalition and rebels from the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party of the 69-year-old cricketer-turned politician.

According to the ‘Orders of the Day’ issued by the National Assembly Secretariat on Friday, voting on the no-confidence motion is at the fourth position in the six-point agenda of the National Assembly (NA), the lower house of Parliament.
