ISLAMABAD (DNA) – The agenda of today s (Thursday) Senate session has been released. On July 22, President Dr Arif Alvi had summoned the Senate session on August 1 for voting on the no-confidence motions against Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani and Deputy Chairman Saleem Mandviwala.

According to details, the resolutions submitted by the opposition and government are part of agenda for today’s meeting of the upper house of the parliament.

The opposition senators had submitted the no-trust motion against Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani to the Senate Secretariat on July 9. The ruling coalition hit back with a similar motion against the deputy chairman Saleem Mandviwala on July 12.

The opposition requires a total of 53 votes in the 104-mmber house to get the no-trust resolution passed. Given the party position, the opposition should face no difficulty in getting Mr Sanjrani removed from the office as it enjoys the support of 67 members against 36 members on the treasury benches.
