Karachi March 30 2022: MQM ministers are tendering their resignations to the Prime Minister Pakistan Imran Khan by 1 pm today, says Farooq Naseem.
He added, “My resignation will reach prime Minister office by 1 pm”.
If MQM-P throw its weight behind the opposition, it would drastically tilt the scales in the their favour. According to some estimates, the ruling coalition has a strength of 171 members, since the lone Jamaat lawmaker has elected to stay neutral in the no-confidence vote.
The opposition, on the other hand, seems to have 169 members on its side after the Balochistan Awami Party joined its ranks.
This precarious balance could easily be tilted if the MQM-P’s seven members cross over to the opposition’s side.
