PML-N Senator Irfan Siddiqui’s health worsens, placed on ventilator

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Senator Irfan Siddiqui’s health has deteriorated significantly, prompting doctors to place him on a ventilator, sources confirmed on Monday.

The senator’s critical condition means he will be unable to participate in the National Assembly vote on the 27th Constitutional Amendment, scheduled for Monday.

Sources said Siddiqui, a member of the government’s bench, became seriously ill over the weekend, raising concerns among colleagues and political observers. His absence could influence the government’s voting strength on the amendment, which is being closely watched in the House.

Lawmakers and analysts are monitoring the situation as developments in the National Assembly unfold.
