PML-N forms commit­tee to woo defect­ors backQUETTA: The PML-N-led coalition government in Balochistan faces a serious crisis after its several lawmakers joined the opposition parties for tabling a no-confidence motion against Chief Minister Sanaullah Zehri. The PML-N legislators are among 14 members of the 65-strong Balochistan Assembly who have revolted against their leader in the house, putting their signatures on the motion against the CM. The committee members have been instructed to redress the grievances of the defectors and bring them back to the party fold. Meanwhile, the Balochistan Assembly Secretariat has formally notified members of the assembly about the impending no-confidence motion against the CM. If the no-confidence motion against the CM is passed, the future of both the PML-N allies will be doomed.
