Quetta
\nThe Balochistan Assembly on Thursday rejected the tabling of a no-confidence motion against Chief Minister Abdul Quddus Bizenjo after it failed to garner the support of the required number of lawmakers to move the motion.
\nIn the 65-member Balochistan Assembly, a no-confidence motion requires 33 lawmakers\u2019 backing to be passed.
\nThe motion bore the signatures of 14 lawmakers when it was submitted to the assembly last Wednesday. However, upon its tabling today, the support was reduced to 11 legislators against the requirement of a minimum of 13 MPAs.
\nTalking to the media after the session, Alyani said he already knew his group lacked the required numbers, adding that \u201cour purpose was to bring to light a number of things.\u201d
\nHe said the future course of action will be decided after consultation with the allies. \u201cI am also the president of the BAP, and so the members violating the law will be served a show-cause notice.\u201d
\nAlyani said he would speak to the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) leaders in Islamabad, adding that he had already spoken to fellow BAP leader Khalid Magsi to ask the government about its \u201csilence\u201d on the matter. \u201cWhy did they not honour their promise made with us?\u201d
\nMeanwhile, BAP\u2019s Zahoor Buledi accused the federal government of indulging in corruption at a \u201chigh-scale\u201d.
\nAsad Baloch from the treasury benches hit out at Alyani, claiming that he tried to \u201charm the government\u201d before the budget but \u201ccould not succeed\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
