Arif Alvi News

This act by President Alvi is seen as a challenging stance against the military, considering he is a member of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and closely associated with former Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Imran Khan has alleged that his assassination plot was hatched by Pakistan Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif, Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah and a senior military official.

Pakistan Peoples Party's (PPP's) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari was not among the ministers. Sharif's Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) got 13 ministries and nine ministries have been given to Pakistan People's Party (PPP). Four ministries were handed over to Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) and Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (MQM-P) got two ministries.

Pakistan's Parliament last week elected Sharif, President of the PML-N, as the new prime minister after the ouster of Imran Khan through a no-trust vote. But the new Cabinet could not be formed as Sharif wanted to accommodate all his allies in the government.

Pakistan President Arif Alvi said that Imran Khan will continue as Prime Minister till the appointment of a caretaker PM under Article 224 A of Pakistan Constitution.

Pakistan Cabinet has also been dissolved. Deputy Speaker dismissed no-confidence motion against Imran Khan today. Opposition said it will approach Supreme Court against the dismissal of no-trust vote.

Alvi, in his message to the country on the occasion of Defence Day, pledged to continue supporting the people of Kashmir. Pakistan observes September 6 as the Defence and Martyrs Day to mark the anniversary of the 1965 war with India.

Addressing an event on Sunday, the Pakistan President urged the political leadership of France "not to entrench the discriminatory attitudes against Muslims into laws". He cautioned that doing so would lead to serious repercussions in the shape of hatred and conflict. Alvi`s comments came in reference to an anti-radicalism bill passed by the French parliament`s lower house.

Congress leader Shatrughan Sinha met Pakistan President Arif Alvi in Lahore. Shatrughan's Pak Visit falls creates a controversy in congress party.

The conference, which is being organised by the Pakistan Government and the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR), will be inaugurated by Prime Minister Imran Khan.

Pakistan has been making repeated attempts to corner India on all platforms, including international, by levelling false and malicious accusations since the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA government ended the special status granted to Jammu and Kashmir under Article 370. 

Even as Jammu and Kashmir gets ready to celebrate the 73rd Independence Day on August 15, Pakistan President Arif Alvi on Wednesday appealed to his countrymen to unleash propaganda on the social media targeting India on the Kashmir matter, in yet another futile attempt to malign its eastern neighbour.

Arif Alvi, a close ally of Prime Minister Imran Khan and one of the founding members of the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, was sworn in as Pakistan's new president Sunday.

Arif Alvi will take oath as the 13th president of Pakistan on Sunday. A close ally of Prime Minister Imran Khan and one of the founding members of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf party, Alvi was elected as the president on September 4.

At a time when Pakistan-US relations have hit rock bottom, Islamabad has been repeatedly looking at China for support.

Alvi's family migrated to Pakistan from India after partition.
