Disgruntled leader of Imran Khan's PTI to refrain from voting in no-trust motion against Pakistan PM

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)`s disgruntled lawmaker Ahmed Hussain Deharr said that he had some reservations with ruling PTI but will not take part in voting on a no-trust motion against Imran Khan. 

Lahore: A dissident member of Pakistan's ruling party said on Tuesday that he will remain absent on the voting day of a no-trust motion against the country`s premier.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)`s disgruntled lawmaker Ahmed Hussain Deharr in an exclusive interview to ARY News said that he had some reservations with ruling PTI but will not take part in voting on a no-trust motion against the premier. "I am still part of PTI and will support the prime minister," said PTI MNA Deharr.

It is pertinent to mention that the National Assembly session had been convened on March 25 by Speaker of the Lower House of the Parliament Asad Qaiser at the requisition submitted by the joint opposition for tabling no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Irrespective of the outcome of the no-confidence vote against Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Friday, analysts believe his leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) is already significantly "dented".

Imran Khan`s party is facing an internal revolt, with several members of the National Assembly (MNAs) deserting the PTI and joining the opposition ranks. The disgruntled MNAs numbering about two dozen, fearing backlash from the PTI central leadership and the cadres, lodged themselves at the Sindh House, a PPP-run facility.
