Politicians react to shocking result of no-trust vote against Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani
The effort proved futile and was a big blow to the anti-government campaign
(Web Desk) – In a shocking turn of events, the secret balloting for Senate Chairman’s election on Thursday resulted in the victory for the PTI government, as the opposition alliance couldn’t keep their members intact to remove Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani.
The no-confidence motion against Chairman Senate Sadiq Sanjrani was the center of heated debates for quite some time as the opposition parties were flexing their muscle in a show of strength to the incumbent government.
Despite all the get together dinners by the Paksitan Peoples Party (PPP), Pakistan Muslim League–Nawaz (PMLN) and the rest of the opposition parties, the effort proved futile and was a big blow to their anti-government campaign as they lost in the number game.
After the Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani’s victory, politicians reactions with respect to their party positions started pouring in on Twitter, some of these Tweets are as follows.

Congratulations to Sadiq Sanjrani as he stays as Chairman Senate. Senators opted to vote for strengthening of democratic institutions rather than being used to serve vested interest of corrupt leadership. #SadiqSanjrani

Sad day for democracy in Pak. Senate, upper house turned into horse trading market. 64 Senators vote openly in favour of no conf motion but when they go in secret ballot 14 defect. The defectors are worst than Mir Jafar & Mir Sadiq. Is horse trading permissible in Riyasat Madina
