ISLAMABAD: In light of the major blow faced by PTI and eventually a disaster for Prime Minister Imran Khan, as government’s significant ally MQM-P has chosen to abandon the ruling party PTI and hold hands with the joint Opposition in their no-confidence movement against PM Imran Khan which is likely to be taken on April 3.
With all these developments things are very much evident that the present-day government has lost the majority in the lower house leading to the success of the no-confidence movement against PM Imran Khan. With 177 individuals in the bucket, the Opposition presently has more numbers in the National Assembly. Whereas PTI is left with just 164 individuals from the parliament.
