Today, the Supreme Court will begin hearings in the matter of the rejection of a no-confidence petition

On Thursday, the Supreme Court will continue hearings in the suo motu case concerning the rejection of a no-confidence resolution in the National Assembly (today).
The case is being heard by a five-member bigger Supreme Court panel led by Pakistan’s Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial.
Babar Awan, counsel for Pakistan Tehreek e Insaf (PTI), has presented his arguments.
In the midst of the Punjab Assembly squabble, the PTI filed a no-trust petition against Deputy Speaker Sardar Dost Muhammad Mazari on April 6, sparking yet another controversy.

The incumbent political party filed the no-trust motion when the directive to postpone the assembly’s session to April 16 was not followed.

The resolution was brought against Mazari because of his distrust, and it was alleged that following the move, the deputy speaker was no longer entitled to call the House.

Meanwhile, Deputy Speaker Mazari voiced his worry about the province’s escalating political situation and insisted that, despite the no-trust motion, he was entitled to call the House session in line with the legislation.

The development came only days after Qasim Suri, the National Assembly’s deputy speaker, issued a contentious verdict in support of Prime Minister Imran Khan’s no-confidence motion.
