The reason why National Assembly (NA) Speaker Asad Qaiser did not preside over the assembly’s session on April 3, during which the opposition’s no-trust motion was to be voted on, was because he was opposed to the speaker’s ruling under Article 5 of the Constitution.
According to the channel’s sources, Asad had even communicated his concerns to the Pakistan Tehreek-i-(PTI) Insaf’s top leadership.
They also revealed that, despite attempts by Prime Minister Imran Khan’s legal team to convince him, he remained adamant and maintained his position.
And the reason he did not make his disagreements with the ruling party’s leadership public was that he believed the matter was still pending and that it would be prudent not to comment.
