Imran Khan lost the no-confidence vote against him in the Pakistan National Assembly in the wee hours of Sunday.
The National Assembly session, which began on Saturday 10. 30 am, was adjourned multiple times. Meanwhile, Speaker Asad Qaiser and Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri resigned before the voting began.
Imran Khan, who was elected as the Prime Minister in 2018, faced a no-confidence vote largely on accusations of economic mismanagement.
No Pakistani prime minister has ever completed a full five-year term in office.
Meanwhile, Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government on Saturday filed a review petition in the Supreme Court challenging its decision to declare the ruling of the deputy speaker to dismiss the no-confidence resolution against the prime minister as unconstitutional.
The review petition, filed through Dr Babar Awan and Azhar Siddique, named the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N), Supreme Court Bar Association, Sindh High Court Bar Association and the Sindh Bar Council as respondents.
