Pakistan People's Party (PPP) leader Syed Khursheed Shah has said that the opposition will move the motion of no-confidence after the long march.
The PPP leader said that he has gone to Islamabad to handle some important tasks related to requisition and the non-confidence move.
He said that the opposition's long march is not against the government, rather it is against Prime Minister Imran Khan.
He also said that the opposition will submit requisition for the National Assembly (NA) session before the no-confidence move.
He added that they will table the motion at the conclusion of the long march.
Shah said that they are confident that even Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) workers are tired of Prime Minister Imran.
He said that 13 lawmakers of the lower house have made their decision regarding the no-confidence move as they no longer want to bear the burden of PM Imran's "failures".

He also said that he can confidently say that the premier will not appoint Pakistan Muslim League-Qauid (PML-Q) leader Pervaiz Elahi as the chief minister of Punjab, let alone hand over his party to the Chaudhrys of Gujrat.
It is worth noting here that the PPP leader's comments come after Prime Minister Imran has stepped up efforts to claim the support of the government's allies, including the Chaudhrys, who are notorious for being kingmakers in Punjab.
On Friday, this paper reported that amid the threat of a no-confidence motion, the premier is likely to meet the leadership of Muttahida Qaumi Movement-Pakistan (PML-Q) during an expected visit to Karachi in the coming week.
