The situation comes a day after the clashes broke out in Parliament on Sunday between pro-government MPs and opposition lawmakers over differences over the approval of four members of the pro-China President's cabinet. 


The Maldivian Democratic Party, in coalition with the Democrats, have claimed that they have collected enough signatures for an impeachment motion. However, it is yet to submit.
