45 PTI MPAs in contact with Opp: Najm
Pakistan People’s Party Khyber Pakhtunkhwa President Najmudddin Khan on Saturday announced that the opposition has decided to oust the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government in KP through a no-confidence motion.
Addressing a press conference at Lowari House, Najmuddin, who recently became the PPP provincial president, said the opposition parties including JUI-F, ANP and PPP in the province were on a single page against the PTI government. The PPP leader claimed that at least 45 MPAs from the PTI were in contact with the opposition parties, including the PPP.
The decision to submit a no-trust motion against the KP government came weeks after the submission of the no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan by the joint opposition. The opposition parties had sought the ouster of Imran Khan on March 8, accusing him of “mismanaging the economy and poor governance”.
After submitting the no-confidence motion in the NA Secretariat, the opposition has been trying to woo PTI allies into supporting its no-trust move, while the government has ramped up the efforts of retaining its allies.
