Imran Khan inquired the Supreme Court to reconsider Qasim Suri’s ruling.

PTI Chairman Imran Khan contested the Supreme Court’s decision against former deputy speaker Qasim Suri’s no-confidence motion judgment on Thursday.

The former prime minister has appealed the Supreme Court’s verdict in the suo motu notice case.

On April 3, the former deputy speaker of the National Assembly rejected a vote of no confidence in Prime Minister Imran Khan, claiming it was part of an international plot.

Former Prime Minister Imran Khan said in his plea that the Supreme Court had ruled on April 7 that the no-confidence vote be held on April 9.

“The court’s April 7 decision has various gaps that need to be examined,” he stated.

During the National Assembly’s sessions, the deputy speaker, according to the PTI chairman, enforced Article 5 of the Constitution.

After meeting 12 Supreme Court judges, Pakistan’s Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial took suo motu notice of the verdict against the deputy speaker of the National Assembly on May 9.

After declaring the government’s decision to dissolve the National Assembly and NA Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri’s ruling against the Constitution, the Supreme Court restored the National Assembly.

The highest court had ordered the then-National Assembly speaker, Asad Qasier, to convene the session no later than 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, April 9.

“The assembly was in existence at all times, and continues to remain and be so,” the Supreme Court said.

The speaker cannot prorogue the parliament and end the session if the no-confidence motion fails or after a new prime minister is elected if a no-confidence motion is passed, according to the apex court.

No member will be denied the right to vote, according to the court. It further indicated that if the no-confidence motion fails, the government will continue to function.
