Pakistan People’s Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Thursday gave Prime Minister Imran Khan a five-day deadline to resign from his post.
“Resign within five days, dissolve the (National) assembly and confront us… if you do not resign yourself then we will come to Islamabad and force you to do it,” he said while addressing a public gathering in Lodhran.
Bilawal said that his party will bring the no-confidence motion against the premier if doesn’t resign but will make sure to remove him from his office.
“We will have the numbers [the votes required in NA for the approval of no-confidence vote] in five days… all MNAs in the lower house will be with us,” he insisted.
The PPP leader said that he never accepted this “incapable puppet” a legitimate prime minister and called him a selected. “We are a democratic party and our march is a democratic right. This march compelled the puppet to reduce the price of petrol and the tariff of electricity. We will come to Islamabad and remove him. We will hold him accountable for stealing sugar, flour, gas, petrol, fertiliser.” He said that PM Imran has orchestrated the economic crisis for the common people in the country. Bilawal asked PTI MNAs to side with the no-confidence motion if they want to be “pardoned by the people of Pakistan”. He said that the people supported the party of former prime minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto and his daughter Benazir Bhutto.
