Federal Minister for Information and Law said Friday voting on the no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan could shift to next week, Geo News reported.

In a historic judgment a day earlier, the Supreme Court of Pakistan had ordered National Assembly Speaker Asad Qasier to summon the session on Saturday (April 9) no later than 10:30am to allow the vote on the no-confidence motion against the premier.

The Supreme Court of Pakistan had also restored the National Assembly after it declared the government’s decision to dissolve the assembly and NA Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri’s ruling null and void and against the Constitution.

Contrary to the apex court’s orders, Fawad said the voting on the no-trust motion against Prime Minister could be shifted to the coming week instead of taking place today.

“We will not take much time, however, the foreign secretary will brief the house on threat letter before discussion on a vote of no trust,” said Fawad.
