The present drama started in April 2022, when then Prime Minister Khan was ousted following a parliamentary vote of no confidence. Khan accused the new Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif of conspiring with the US to topple his administration (with the blessing of the Pakistani military )and demanded early elections – as, in his view, the new government had no democratic legitimacy.
Khan’s political party, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), organised large-scale protest rallies and took all possible institutional measures to enforce a snap general election. Its elected members resigned from both the National Assembly and from two of the country’s four provincial assemblies where the PTI was in control, Punjab (on 15 January) and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KPK, on 18 January).
