ISLAMABAD: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUIF) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Thursday revealed that the no-confidence motion against the then Prime Minister Imran Khan was brought on the behest of ex-army chief Qamar Javed Bajwa, ARY News reported.<\/strong><\/p>\n

In an interview with a private news channel, Maulana Fazl disclosed that he was not in favor of the no-confidence motion against Imran, which later resulted in his ouster as the country\u2019s Prime Minister.<\/p>\n

He revealed that the PPP was running the motion, the former ISI chief Faiz Hameed also met the JUI-F chief and asked him to table the motion against Khan but within the system.<\/p>\n

Maulana Fazl elaborated that during the time of the no-confidence motion, they remained in communication with Qamar Javed Bajwa and Faiz Hameed. Both urged all political parties to proceed with the no-confidence motion against the former Prime Minister Imran Khan.<\/p>\n

The JUI-F chief maintained that the election 2024 was rigged and it apparently benefited PML-N as rumors surfaced that the Lahore seat was \u2018given\u2019 to former Prime Minster Nawaz Sharif.<\/p>\n

Furthermore, Maulana Fazl announced that JUI-F will now protest against the alleged rigging in election 2024.<\/p>\n

It is pertinent to mention here that\u00a0Imran Khan was ousted as prime minister (PM) as the no-confidence motion<\/a>\u00a0moved by opposition parties against him succeeded.<\/p>\n

As many as 174 votes were cast in favor of a no-confidence motion against PM Imran Khan. This was the first time in the history of Pakistan that a no-confidence motion against an elected prime minister succeeded.<\/p>\n

Following the resignation of the NA speaker and deputy speaker, PML-N\u2019s Ayaz Sadiq as a panel of the chairman of the house began the proceedings on the matter.<\/p>\n

The joint opposition needed the support of at least 172 lawmakers from a total of 342 to oust the premier through the no-trust move.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
