The premiership of Shehbaz Sharif began on 11 April, 2022 after he was nominated as a candidate for Prime Minister of Pakistan by opposition parties following a vote of no confidence in the incumbent prime minister, Imran Khan during the 2022 Pakistani constitutional crisis.[1][2] He was sworn in as prime minister by Senate Chairman Sadiq Sanjrani while acting as president on behalf of Arif Alvi.[3][4] Sharif remained in office until 14 August 2023, when he stepped down for a caretaker government to participate in the 2024 general election.[5] After a heavily contested election, Sharif was re-elected as prime minister on 4 March 2024, defeating the PTI-backed Omar Ayub Khan.[6]
