Pakistan’s Prime Minister Imran Khan has been ousted after 174 lawmakers voted against him in a parliamentary vote following a no-confidence motion against him.

Earlier on Sunday, the deputy speaker of the National Assembly rejected a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Khan as unconstitutional.Shortly after the no-confidence motion was rejected, Prime Minister Imran Khan recommended President Arif Ali Khan to dissolve the parliament.The president also dissolved parliament on the recommendation of the prime minister.

But Pakistan’s Supreme Court overturned a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan and a decision to dissolve parliament, ordering a no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Khan to be moved in the reconstituted parliament.

Prime Minister Khan has even accused the US of conspiring against the government.

Among the 342-member of National Assembly Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party only had 133 members. PM Khan was ousted after Coalition lawmakers withdrew their support and some of his own lawmakers voted against him.
