Imran Khan government

The Imran Khan government was the federal cabinet of Pakistan from 20 August 2018 to 10 April 2022. It was formed by Imran Khan, following general elections on 25 July 2018, which saw the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) come to power. The cabinet had 34 federal ministers, 7 ministers of state, 10 Advisers to the Prime Minister and 35 Special Assistants to the Prime Minister (SAPM), most of whom assumed office on 20 August 2018. On 10 April 2022 the government was defeated in a vote of no-confidence against Imran Khan, leading to its subsequent dissolution.

Various ministers and advisors of the cabinet had previously served in the military government of Pervez Musharraf, Out of a total of 21 ministers in 2018; 12 ministers had previously served under Musharraf, while 5 ministers served previously under PPP governments. The PTI ministry saw 4 different finance ministers (Asad Umar, Abdul Hafeez Shaikh, Hammad Azhar, Shaukat Tarin) from 2018 to 2022. By April 2021 the government had reshuffled six times. During its tenure, due to the COVID-19 pandemic, economic pressures, and corruption scandals involving Khan's aides and party, the army increased its influence in civilian governance, with military officials being appointed to various posts. Near the end of the government's tenure, Pakistan experienced surging inflation and the start of a severe years-long economic crisis in late 2021.

The Imran Khan government was described as a civil-military "hybrid regime", while Imran Khan frequently described himself and the military establishment as being on the "same page." However, later tensions developed between the Prime Minister and the Chief of Army Staff (COAS), Gen Qamar Javed Bajwa, eventually leading to a rift.

Policy initiatives of the government include the Ehsaas Programme, Kamyab Jawan Program, Plant for Pakistan, Raast, military extensions (Army, Navy, Airforce), Roshan Digital Account and the Sehat Sahulat Program.
