For Pakistan National Assembly, which has notably never seen a prime minister complete the full 5-year-tenure, this is not going to be the first no-confidence motion against an elected leader.
New Delhi: After escaping the crucial no-confidence motion, which holds huge chances to dethrone Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan, for over a week with the chaotic political play, the leader will finally have to face the no-trust vote on Saturday following the Supreme Court order.
Interestingly, for Pakistan National Assembly, which has notably never seen a prime minister complete the full 5-year-tenure, this is not going to be the first no-confidence motion against an elected leader.
As Imran Khan gears up to face the no-confidence vote on Saturday, here’s a list of Pakistan PMs who faced no trust in the past:
Daughter of veteran Pakistani leader Zulfikar Ali Bhutto, Benazir, created history by becoming the first woman Prime Minister in the male-dominated setup of Pakistan.
Benazir Bhutto is, however, also attributed for being the first Pakistan PM to face the motion. Pakistan’s first no-confidence motion was introduced against Bhutto in 1989 but the leader won the parliamentary proceeding against her and managed to keep the government.
