Shehbaz Sharif secures his second term as Pakistan’s prime minister as lawmakers elect him with 201 votes amid shouts and protests in parliament, announced the speaker on Sunday. Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N)’s Shehbaz will lead a coalition government with Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) as a key partner. This comes despite former PM Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-backed independents emerged as the largest number of winners, followed by PML-N and PPP.
