QUETTA – The no-confidence motion filed in the Balochistan Assembly against Chief Minister Mir Quddus Bizenjo came a cropper after the movers failed to produce the required members in the house.
Reports in local media said the caretaker Governor Balochistan Mir Jan Muhammad Jamali has convened the Balochistan Assembly session today for tabling the no-confidence motion moved by 14 members of the Balochistan Assembly.
In the 65-member Balochistan Assembly, a no-confidence motion requires 33 lawmakers’ backing to be passed while only 11 backed the resolution seeking to remove the chief executive of the country’s mineral-rich province.
