khan: Ahead of no-trust vote, Pakistan’s ruling party attempts last ditch effort to appease allies – Times of India
ISLAMABAD: With the allies of the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) deciding again to side with the opposition on the upcoming no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan, the ruling party has doubled up efforts to appease the annoyed coalition partners.
Three major coalition partners- Muttahida Qaumi Movement Pakistan (MQM-P), Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) and Balochistan Awami Party (BAP)- recently said that they will support the Opposition in the no-confidence motion.
Upset with the news of allies joining the opposition camp, Pakistan PM dispatched a team of senior PTI leaders to meet the allies and assure them that their reservations would be addressed, Pakistani newspaper Dawn reported, citing sources.
The PTI leaders met the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) to convince them for the last time so that the allies would return to the government and support the Pakistani PM in the National Assembly on the voting day.
Pakistan Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said that the next 48 hours will be “quite crucial” when the political chaos would be cleared. He hoped that the allies would stick with the Pakistani PM in the hour of need. He also hoped that the allies would stick with the government, Dawn reported.
Meanwhile, earlier today the Pakistani PM, in a recorded video, broadcast on the national television, social media and radio networks, termed the opposition a “group of bandits” who have been looting the county for the last 30 years and have joined hands for “auctioning the conscience of the elected public representatives”.
Khan also invited the people of the country to join him on Islamabad’s Parade Ground during his public rally on March 27.
Notably, the Opposition parties in Pakistan are jettisoning mutual hatred to oust Imran Khan as they submitted the no-trust motion in the National Assembly secretariat on March 8.
Khan is set to face a no-confidence vote against him tomorrow. (ANI)
