Pakistan opposition

The former Pakistani prime minister has given the Shehbaz Sharif government six days to call elections.

The political drama has moved now to the Supreme Court, which must rule on the legality of Khan's decision.

Khan is pulling all the levers to avoid losing a no-confidence vote – and in the process highlighting the fault lines in Pakistan’s democracy.

Pakistan Democratic Movement leader Fazlur Rehman’s potshot at the army shows the opposition remains emboldened.

With its latest power play, Pakistan’s civilian-military regime might have bitten off more than it could chew.

While publicly taking a harsh stance on the military’s role in Pakistan’s politics, the country’s opposition parties also seek to be in its good books.

Nawaz Sharif has re-entered Pakistan’s political fray, calling for Khan’s ouster.

The “minus one” narrative is gaining traction, but it would be difficult to replace Khan as prime minister.

The PTI government's poor performance has apparently alienated even Pakistan's kingmakers: the military.

In the age of social media, labeling people traitors, infidels and foreign agents doesn’t necessarily inspire the self-censorship it once did.

Pakistan’s judiciary acknowledges the political victimization of the opposition, backed by military agencies.
