The move comes after the ruling party lost the Islamabad general seat to the opposition in the recently held Senate elections. "No member of PDM would participate in tomorrow's National Assembly session," PDM Head Maulana Fazlur Rehman announced while addressing a brief news conference in Sukkur. He said that the manner in which the prime minister addressed the nation yesterday, it was akin to accepting defeat. Votes of these members would also be included in tomorrow's session, he reminded the premier. "Vote of no-confidence has already been given in the shape of Senate elections... in the victory of Yousuf Raza Gilani," he added.
