On April 10, Pakistan's National Assembly (lower house of parliament) voted for a motion of no confidence in Prime Minister Imran Khan, which means that Imran Khan became the first prime minister in Pakistan's history to be ousted by the National Assembly.

It is reported that the opposition coalition formally submitted a motion of no-confidence to the National Assembly, citing the poor economic development of Imran Khan's leadership and the failure to fulfill campaign promises such as eliminating corruption.

In a vote held by the National Assembly of Pakistan, a motion of no confidence put forward by the opposition coalition won 174 votes in favour. According to the Constitution of Pakistan and the rules of procedure of the parliament, a motion of no confidence can be passed as long as it is supported by more than half of the seats in the National Assembly, that is, 172 votes.

As soon as the news came out, rallies were held in many cities in Pakistan, and tens of thousands of people poured into the streets to protest against Imran Khan's ouster.

Footage on social platforms showed that on the brightly lit streets, pedestrians held flashlights, waved national flags and sang in unison, while shouting the name of Imran Khan.
