A no-confidence motion against Azad Jammu and Kashmir Prime Minister Chaudhry Anwar-ul-Haq has been prepared, with the required number of lawmakers already signing the document.

According to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) sources, the motion could be submitted at any time.

The no-confidence motion, drafted by the PPP, carries the signatures of several members of the AJK Legislative Assembly who recently joined the PPP.

PPP secures majority

It is worth noting that the PPP had claimed a day earlier that it had secured the support of the required number of members needed to form a new government in Azad Kashmir.

The party also secured the support of four more independent lawmakers, bringing its total strength in the assembly to 27, paving the way for a possible change in government in the region.

Faryal Talpur leads meetings

PPP leader Faryal Talpur, who oversees the party’s AJK affairs, held a series of important meetings in Islamabad with politicians, including Majid Khan, Asim Butt, Akbar Ibrahim, and Faheem Rabbani, further strengthening the party’s position.

Talpur also hosted a dinner at the Sindh House in Islamabad, which was attended by members of the PPP’s parliamentary party, lawmakers representing refugee constituencies, and representatives of the Barrister Sultan group.

During the gathering, five members from the Barrister Sultan group and five lawmakers from the refugee seats announced their support for the PPP, while the backing of two additional members has so far been kept secret.

Meanwhile, AJK’s Minister for Higher Education Malik Zafar Iqbal, also joined the PPP following a meeting with Faryal Talpur and assured his full support for the formation of a new government.
