Lahore:  The opposition was in touch with more than enough government lawmakers required to dethrone Prime Minister Imran Khan through no-confidnece move in the parliament, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Punjab President Rana Sanaullah claimed on Saturday.

The PML-N leader further claimed the sitution this time would be different as despite the opposition didn't have enough numbers to oust the prime minister in the past.

Talking to reporters, he said the government's own members were frustrated with the party and no longer wished to conduct politics or contest next elections alongside it.

He said the leadership of the PML-N and other opposition parties would decide and announce whether a no-confidence move would be brought in the Punjab Assembly first or the Centre.

To a quetsion that the PTI government was not weighing any theat from the oppositin, Sanaullah said if that was the case then why the number of ministries were being increased and development funds being released in different constituencies.
