Pervaiz Elahi says PM Imran 'not worried at all' about no-confidence motion

Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) central leader Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi Thursday said Prime Minister Imran Khan was "not worried at all" about a possible no-confidence move against him by the opposition.

He was repsonding to the query of a reporter who referred a statement by Water Resources Minister Moonis Elahi that the opposition was stepping up efforts and approaching PML-Q leaders to seek their support for tabling a no-confidence motion against the premier.

Pervaiz's statement comes after PM Imran called on the PML-Q leadership on Tuesday, in a bid to ensure their support as opposition parties prepare to move a no-confidence motion against the premier.

The PML-Q leader replied in negative when asked whether the much-talked-about no-trust move was discussed during the meeting.

Replying to another question about the opposition's plans of tabling the no-confidence motion, Pervaiz said: "Ingredients are in the pot and I will speak on this after smoke rises after the first boil."

Asked what would be the outcome of the no-confidence motion, he said, "Such a large pot is on the stove. Something will come out of it."
