Pakistan will have interim President, PM next week

Next week, Pakistan will enter an unprecedented chapter in its history as it transitions to an interim presidential and prime ministerial leadership. This milestone comes into effect as President Arif Alvi's term concludes, ushering him into the role of interim president, albeit with potential limitations on his involvement in crucial national matters.

As per the constitutional provisions, a president can maintain his position until the election of a new president occurs. In Pakistan's unique circumstances, President Arif Alvi will continue beyond his constitutional term because the absence of provincial assemblies prevents the election of a new president at this time. Moreover, the absence of the National Assembly precludes the approval of a motion of impeachment against the president.
