Tariq Rehman is set to become the country’s first male prime minister in 35 years after securing a two-thirds majority in parliament. His strong victory marks a major political shift and signals broad support from lawmakers across the country.
According to official results, Rehman’s party won enough seats to form a stable government without relying heavily on coalition partners.
A two-thirds majority gives his government greater power to pass laws and even introduce constitutional changes if needed. Political analysts say this level of support provides him with a strong mandate to implement his policies and reforms.
Rehman thanked voters and party members for their trust and promised to focus on economic growth, job creation, and improved public services.
Rehman’s rise to office ends a 35-year period during which women held the prime minister’s position. His leadership now begins at a time when the country faces economic and social challenges. Many citizens are watching closely to see how he uses his strong majority to deliver on his promises.
