The administration of Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf was dealt a major setback as the Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM) reached an agreement with the opposition Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP). As of now, the Imran Khan government has lost its majority in Pakistan's lower chamber of parliament, following late-night developments in the days leading up to the no-confidence motion or no-trust vote against him. After the ruling coalition partner MQM-P opted to break away from the Imran Khan-led government, Pakistan's unified opposition currently has 177 members of the national legislature (Members of National Assembly). Notably, Pakistan's combined opposition needed the backing of 172 MNAs in order to pass a no-confidence resolution against the Prime Minister. The no-confidence vote against Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is scheduled for April 3.
