Overview
- Speaker Chaudhry Latif Akbar will chair the special session, with entry restricted and security tightened around the Assembly Secretariat and government offices.
- The motion was filed by PPP lawmaker Qasim Majeed and initially endorsed by 25 legislators, including two from the PML-N.
- PPP claims backing from roughly 37–38 members—exceeding the 27 needed—after multiple PTI forward-bloc lawmakers crossed the aisle.
- PML-N has signed the resolution but says it will not join a PPP-led government and will sit on the opposition benches.
- Prime Minister Chaudhry Anwarul Haq has declined to resign and will face the vote; if the motion succeeds, Rathore is expected to take the oath on Tuesday.
