LAHORE: A no-confidence motion against Speaker Punjab Assembly Parvez Elahi has been wrapped up by a member of the panel of chair over the absence of the mover of the no-trust move, ARY NEWS reported.

The panel of chair initiated the proceedings of the provincial assembly and called out the mover of the no-confidence motion. However, after repeated calls, the mover did not turn up, resulting in disposing off the no-trust motion against Speaker Parvez Elahi.

As soon as the motion was disposed-off, the PML-N lawmakers entered the House. However, the panel of chair adjourned the proceedings for June 06.

Earlier in the day, police took control of the Punjab Assembly building and personnel have been deployed at all entrances of the house ahead of Sunday’s session.
