Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan is busy trying to save his government. The problem of Imran government has increased since 24 MPs of his own party (Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf) have turned against him. According to reports, these MPs can vote against Imran Khan on the no-confidence motion. Voting is likely to be held on March 28.
Allies are ready to leave too!
The Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P) and Pakistan Muslim League-Qaida (PML-Q) have proposed a formula for Imran Khan to replace one Imran Khan as PM to save the current government. But Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi has rejected this proposal.
The watchdog of Pakistan’s politics believes that controlling the opposition from Imran Khan’s party is going to be difficult for him. His alliance partners also do not want to be with him while he is the PM. In such a situation, Imran Khan will have to do some charisma to stay in power or else he can lose power after the no-confidence motion.
Imran government can come in such minority
The National Assembly of Pakistan consists of 342 members. Mane Imran Khan would need 172 seats to remain in the government. Imran Khan currently has the support of 176 MPs. In this, there are 155 members of Imran Khan’s party Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf.
Imran Sarkar was nominated by Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P), 7 from Pakistan Muslim League-Qaida (PML-Q), 5 from Balochistan Awami Party (BAP), 3 from Grand Democratic Alliance and 1 from Awami Muslim League Pakistan. is supported. This makes the total number 176. One and two independent MPs of Jamhoori Watan Party have also supported Imran Khan from outside.
Decision will be taken on Imran government soon!
In the case of withdrawal of support of 7 members of MQM-P and 5-5 members of PML-Q and BAP, the Imran government will be left with the support of only 159 MPs. With this, if 24 angry MPs of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf withdraw their support from the government, then the total number becomes 135. In such a situation, Imran Khan’s government will be reduced to a minority. In such a situation, after adding outside support, Imran Khan will be 34 seats away from the majority.
MQM-P, PML-Q and BAP are meeting continuously. In such a situation, soon it will be decided whether these parties will now support the Imran government or not. This will also make it clear whether the Imran government will complete its term or will fall before that. Let us inform that Imran Khan’s party came to power in 2018 and the next general election in Pakistan is to be held in October 2023.
