Deputy Speaker dismissed the opposition's no-confidence motion terming it against Article 5 of the Constitution.


Islamabad: Following the ruling of NA Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri, Deputy Attorney General of Pakistan Raja Khalid Mehmood resigned from his post in protest against the government’s unconstitutional act.
According to details, a wave of shock and agony struck the government's legal team after the rejection of the no-confidence motion and the dissolution of assemblies.
Raja Khalid Mehmood said that the government performed an "unconstitutional act”, adding that he could no longer be part of the system.
It is pertinent to remember that the NA deputy speaker adjourned the session held for voting on the no-confidence motion against PM Imran Khan, terming it as "unconstitutional."
Subsequently, President Arif Alvi ordered the dissolution of the National Assembly on the advice of Prime Minister Imran Khan.
The prime minister in his short-televised address to the nation made an announcement, soon after the National Assembly session was prorogued by the deputy speaker, rejecting the opposition’s push for the no-trust motion as unconstitutional. "The nation should prepare for the next elections." the premier added.
According to sources, elections will be held within a period of 90 days.
