Shehbaz Sharif becomes the Prime Minister of Pakistan for the second time.


Shehbaz Sharif on Sunday became the prime minister of Pakistan for a second time to lead a coalition government after he comfortably won a majority in the newly-elected Parliament.

 

Shehbaz, 72, who was the consensus candidate of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), received 201 votes in the 336-member house.

 

Shehbaz’s challenger Omar Ayub Khan of jailed former prime minister Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) secured 92 votes.

 

The session of the new parliament convened amid ruckus and sloganeering by PTI-backed lawmakers.

 

Shehbaz will administer the oath of office on Monday at the Presidential mansion, Aiwan-e-Sadr.

 

Shehbaz earlier served as prime minister of a coalition government from April 2022 to August 2023 before Parliament was dissolved to hold general elections.
