With this, the Imran government has come down to a minority in the Parliament. Two ministers from the MQM-P quota in the government have also resigned. After this, Prime Minister Imran Khan hurriedly called a special meeting of the cabinet. Amid speculations of resignation, Home Minister Rashid Khan has claimed that Imran will "play till the last ball".
