PM Imran rules out any threat to govt, says Opposition may fulfil desire to table no-confidence motion

Islamabad: Prime Minister Imran Khan claimed there was no threat to his government, asking the Opposition to table the no-confidence motion against his government.

"The Opposition may go ahead and fulfil its desire to table the no-trust motion but we are fully prepared," the premier said while presiding over the PTI's core committee meeting in Islamabad.

Referring to the politicians who are facing corruption cases in the courts, PM Khan said that those who fear their trials cannot bring revolution with the money that they have illegally acquired.

"We will foil the agenda of the thieves," he said.

Earlier, the core committee meeting reviewed the current political situation of the country. PM's adviser on Parliamentarian Affairs Babar Awan briefed the meeting on legal affairs.

Minister for Foreign Affairs Shah Mahmood Qureshi, Minister for Planning and Development Asad Umar and Minister for Defence Parvez Khattak also attended the meeting.

PM enjoys full support of party members, govt’s allies: Gill

Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Political Communication Dr. Shahbaz Gill on Monday said, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) will easily foil opposition’s no-trust motion as Prime Minister Imran Khan enjoys full support of party members and allies in the Parliament.

Addressing a news conference he said, the opposition was destined to fail in ousting a democratically elected government which would fulfill its constitutional term of five years.

Gill dispelled the notion that the opposition has support of the government’s coalition partners saying the respectable politicians always stood by the commitments they made with others.

By announcing no-confidence move, Shehbaz said the opposition trapped into a blind alley particularly due to their corrupt leaders who were hell bent on saving their loot and plunder.

He said, it was in knowledge of the government that the opposition revived the culture of horse trading in the politics.

Gill said the PTI members had requested the prime minister to chalk out a strategy to expose the opposition in public after the failure of no-trust move.

To a query, he said the opposition was falsely giving an impression that the state institutions were partaking in politics.
