The Punjab Assembly on Sunday approved a resolution calling for the resignation of Chief Election Commissioner (CEC) Sikander Sultan Raja.

The session of the provincial assembly began with newly-elected Speaker Sibtain Khan administering the oath to his deputy, Wasiq Qayyum.

Qayyum was elected unopposed a day earlier after the Opposition announced a boycott of the polls.

In today’s address, speaker Khan told the assembly that his deputy was elected after no one else submitted their nomination papers.
