A session of the Azad Jammu and Kashmir Assembly to elect a new prime minister was adjourned on Monday without the poll being held.

The election was announced after Sardar Tanveer Ilyas’ disqualification by the AJK High Court in a contempt case.

The session, which was due to start at 11am, finally began at 3:30pm under the chairmanship of Speaker Riaz Ahmed. However, the session was adjourned till 11am today without a new prime minister being elected.

The PTI enjoys a majority in the AJK Legislative Assembly, but their path to secure a candidate loyal to Imran Khan as the premier may get difficult.
