Panamagate scandal: Opposition parties to set their course today
Three options will be discussed in today’s meeting including deliberations on whether to move the court, approach parliament or take to the streets over the issue.
The plan of action will be finalised by 11-party opposition bloc – nine of which have parliamentary representation, while two politico-religious parties PAT and MWM lack any parliamentary strength.
PTI chairman Imran Khan and PPP chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari will not attend the meeting. “Imran is busy in the AJK election campaign while Bilawal has mandated two senior party leaders Khursheed Shah and Aitzaz Ahsan to attend the meeting,” said a senior PTI leader.
The PAT and the MWM have shown their willingness to attend today’s meeting.
