PML-N vice president says opposition in Islamabad to bid farewell to PM Imran Khan


Islamabad: PML-N Vice President Maryam said Monday that Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan was an ungrateful person as he used his party members to save his sinking ship.
Addressing a jalsa of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) in the federal capital, the PML-N said the prime minister, instead of stepping down from office, sacrificed Usman Buzdar, forcing him to resign from his position as the chief minister.
"Today, under the leadership of Maulana Fazlur Rehman, we are here to bid you farewell," the PML-N vice president said, adding: "The person who starts his morning with abusive words ultimately faces a humiliating end."
Taking a jibe at the prime minister over the March 27 rally held at the Parade Ground, she said the PTI was not even able to gather 10,000 people, let alone 100,000.
She challenged the premier to amass the support of 172 members in the National Assembly to survive the no-confidence motion instead of boasting about amassing one million people at a rally.
Hours earlier, a PML-Q delegation had met PM Imran Khan at Bani Gala, where the prime minister offered Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi the Punjab chief minister's office.
The PML-Q leader accepted the offer, and the party is expected to back the prime minister in the no-confidence motion — but Cheema's vote hangs in the balance due to his reservations.
Maryam also mentioned that no foreign powers were working against the incumbent government as the prime minister himself was the "biggest threat" to the country.
"Did [US President] Joe Biden ask your party lawmakers to leave your side?" she asked the prime minister about his disgruntled MNAs who have announced to vote in favour of the Opposition's no-confidence motion.
Criticising the PM, she asked whether it was "foreign powers" who had told him to "resort to using magic and psychic powers." She said that if there is a foreign conspiracy going on against Pakistan, "Imran Khan is the biggest facilitator of that conspiracy".
