The process of appointing the leader of the opposition in the National Assembly has been completed as the NA secretariat issued notification of the opposition leader in the Lower House of the Parliament.
The nominated candidate for the opposition leader Omar Ayub called on the National Assembly speaker wherein Ayaz Sadiq apprised Omar Ayub that a notification would be issued.
National Assembly Speaker Ayaz Sadiq has now issued a notification for the opposition leader.
The appointment of the Leader of the Opposition and the Parliamentary Leader in the National Assembly was delayed due to disagreements over the issue of the Leader of the Opposition and the Parliamentary Leader within the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).
Sources claimed that instead of Umar Ayub nominated by the founder of PTI, former speaker Asad Qaiser himself came forward for the important post. Former Speaker Asad Qaiser met Speaker Ayaz Sadiq in the past few days and demanded not to issue the opposition leader's notification for now.
