ISLAMABAD, Apr 11 (NNI): President Arif Alvi is unlikely to administer oath to newly elected Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif as he has been advised bed rest after he complained of “discomfort”. In a Twitter statement, the President House said, “President Dr. Arif Alvi has complained of discomfort. The physician has examined him thoroughly and has advised him rest for a few days.” Sources said Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani will administer oath to the prime minister-elect. Earlier today, Shehbaz Sharif was elected unopposed as the 23rd Prime Minister of Pakistan in a National Assembly session. PTI boycotted today’s election of the prime minister. Shehbaz received 174 votes.-DNA
