ISLAMABAD – Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan was voted out of his office through a no-confidence motion on Sunday (April 10, 2022).

Announcing the result of the vote of no-confidence, Sardar Ayaz Sadiq said that 174 members of the opposition cast their vote against Prime Minister Imran Khan, removing him from his office as the prime minister of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

Soon after National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaiser resigned from his office, one of the members from the Panel of Chair Sardar Ayaz Sadiq took over the speaker’s chair and ordered voting on the no-confidence motion against the prime minister.

As voting on the no-confidence motion against the prime minister continued, some activists of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) converged outside the Parliament House and raised slogans in support of Prime Minister Imran Khan. The protesting PTI supporters were arrested and shifted to a police station in the federal capital Islamabad.
