Speaker of Azad Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly Chaudhry Anwar-ul-Haq was elected on Thursday unopposed as the new Prime Minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir.

Pollling was held in the wee hours of Thursday and the candidates were given 12:40 am to 12:55 pm time to submit their nomination papers.

No other candidate had submitted papers for the office. Anwar-ul-Haq obtained 48 votes out of a 52-strong house. Lawmakers of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan Peoples Party also voted in his favour.
