ISLAMABAD:

Federal Minister for Information Chaudhry Fawad Hussain on Monday alleged that the no-confidence motion against Imran Khan was part of “global conspiracy” and local political players whose leader was sitting in London had conspired against Pakistan.

Talking to the media along with Minister for Energy Hammad Azhar outside the Supreme Court (SC), the federal minister said that “political dwarfs” like Maulana Fazlur Rehman, Asif Ali Zardari and Shehbaz Sharif were planning to enslave Pakistan permanently as these were the “puppets” whose control was in the hands of a person sitting in London.

Alluding to Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supreme leader Nawaz Sharif, he said that this person was involved in a conspiracy against Pakistan in collaboration with the international establishment.

The minister said that Prime Minister Imran Khan had given the preliminary information about this conspiracy in Sunday’s public meeting and with the passage of time, the rest of the pages would also be laid before the people.

“This conspiracy is not against Imran Khan but against the people of Pakistan,” Fawad said, adding that its objective was to subjugate the people of Pakistan.

He said that in 1930s and 1940s, Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah fought against global colonialism and, on the same pattern, PM Imran was also fighting a two-way battle.

He is exposing the conspiracy of the local establishment on the one hand and fighting the international establishment against Pakistan on the other, he added.

Thanking the people of Pakistan for the “historic public meeting”, Fawad said that from Gilgit-Baltistan (GB) to Karachi, from the mountains of Quetta and Chaghi to Lahore and from Lahore to Islamabad, the manner in which the people responded to PM Imran’s leadership and held the largest gathering in history of Pakistan was highly commendable.

The doors and walls of Islamabad were shaken by the footsteps of the participants of the Amr Bil Ma’ruf rally, he claimed.

He said that earlier, he had stated that those who had tabled the no-confidence motion would have to go through one million people but after Sunday’s meeting, they would have to go through over 200 million people to vote against Prime Minister Imran.

The minister said that proceedings on the reference filed by the president in the apex court were being held and the attorney general was giving his arguments. The attorney general has pleaded that Pakistan was a country with a parliamentary system of government and political parties were an integral part of this system, he added.

Terming the party discipline important in this system, he said that interpretation of Article 63-A was necessary for lifelong disqualification of turncoats to ensure a stable parliamentary system.

He also said that if there were penalties for violators of party discipline, the unholy practice of sale and purchase of people’s loyalties would end forever. He added that the loyalties of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s (PTI) elected members were bought and kept in Sindh House, but he saluted those MNAs who turned down such offers and stood by PM Imran.

He hoped that the apex court in this reference will impose lifelong disqualification for the members involved in floor crossing and it would give a ruling that their votes would not be counted.
