ISLAMABAD:

Legal minds of opposition parties have begun to put forth input on the prospects of the ambitious vote of no-confidence against Prime Minister Imran Khan.

A high-level meeting of the opposition leaders in this regard was held in Islamabad. Lawyers were also in attendance.

One of the legal minds of the opposition party present at the meeting revealed to The Express Tribune that the law experts fed the opposition leaders with possibly all legal aspects and requirements of the vote of no-confidence in the National Assembly. A draft of motion has also been prepared, he added.

The final date for initiating the process of vote of no-confidence will be announced by opposition leaders Shehbaz Sharif, Asif Ali Zardari and Molana Fazal ur Rehman soon, he added.

Another participant in the meeting revealed that one section within opposition leadership insisted that the events related to March 23 as well as the OIC meeting should not be disturbed in the national interest. “If the process starts in this week, the NA speaker may take two weeks to summon the session for this purpose,” he further stated.

It was also learnt that opposition leadership is fully confident that they have the majority of members to make the no-trust move successful. An opposition lawmaker claimed that a federal minister may also join the opposition move in the next couple of days.

Likewise, JUI-F has been active to bring a vote of no-confidence move in Balochistan as well.

Political analysts believe that the biggest dilemma for the present regime is that powerful circles have remained neutral.

Meanwhile, an estranged leader of the ruling party suggested the opposition that the no-confidence move should be initiated in the Punjab Assembly against Chief Minister Usman Buzdar first.

The opposition has planned to bring a no-confidence move against the PM, Punjab CM and the National Assembly speaker.
