The political landscape in Islamabad shifted again as five more SIC MNAs resigned from standing committees, signaling growing discontent within the party’s parliamentary structure. The resignations come at a time when opposition strategies are being reshaped, further intensifying uncertainty in the National Assembly.
According to reports, the decision highlights internal disagreements and reflects the broader political divide within the country. The latest resignations follow earlier moves by prominent party figures, including Faisal Amin Gandapur, who had already quit key committees. Details of his exit can be found here.
SIC MNAs resign from standing committees
The step-down of five more SIC members marks a turning point in the ongoing rift between opposition lawmakers and the government benches. Analysts believe these resignations may weaken the opposition’s presence in key legislative forums.
Key details emerging from the resignations include:
- Five additional SIC MNAs have left their committee roles.
- Their decision follows earlier resignations, including that of Faisal Amin Gandapur.
- Party insiders suggest dissatisfaction with parliamentary proceedings.
- The resignations are seen as part of a wider political strategy.
- The opposition’s role in legislation may now face further challenges.
The resignations of SIC MNAs also raise questions about the party’s approach to parliamentary politics. By stepping away from committees, members risk losing their influence in important legislative matters, but they also send a clear message of protest against the current setup.
Political observers suggest this could be a calculated move to pressure the government while aligning the party’s strategy ahead of future debates and sessions.
As tensions escalate, the National Assembly may witness more dramatic shifts in participation and debate. Whether the move strengthens or weakens the opposition’s voice will depend on how the SIC leadership channels the dissatisfaction of its lawmakers.
For now, the resignations have underlined the party’s stance that standing committees are no longer the platform through which it wishes to push its agenda. This creates uncertainty not only for the opposition but also for parliamentary business at large.
