Balochistan CM set to face no-confidence vote next week

Quetta (HRNW) A no-confidence motion against Balochistan Chief Minister Jam Kamal Alyani is likely to be tabled and put to a vote in the Balochistan Assembly on Wednesday, October 20, that is, the next week.

Balochistan Governor Syed Zahorr Ahmed Agha has summoned a session of the provincial assembly on October 20 and it is expected that a no-confidence motion from the dissident members of the ruling Balochistan Awami Party (BAP) would be tabled in the session. The dissident members had submitted the motion with the assembly secretariat on October 12.

Meanwhile, the spokesman for the Balochistan government Liaquat Shahwani has claimed that the dissident BAP members were being manipulated by the Pakistan Democratic Movement or PDM.

Shahwani says the “angry members” were innocent and the PDM was using them for its own purposes.

He said that like the Senate elections the PDM would suffer “an indirect defeat” in the Balochistan Assembly.

The Balochistan government spokesman also warned against setting a bad precedent.

“No government would last more than two and a half years if a precedent was set,” he said.
