Shehbaz dares PM to share ‘threatening letter’

Reacting to PM's address to nation, Shehbaz urges Imran Khan to stop 'lying' and show 'threatening letter'

LAHORE:

Leader of the Opposition Shehbaz Sharif on Friday rejected PM Imran Khan’s claims of standing up for the integrity of the nation, saying “Niazi is only standing up for his petty, shallow political interests”.

Reacting to the prime minister’s address to the nation, Shehbaz said, “Niazi should stop lying to the nation and show them the so-called letter”. He alleged that in a desperate attempt to hold on to the slipping power, the prime minister was attacking the Constitution, parliament and the higher judiciary.

"In his speech, Imran Niazi has announced the joint opposition's victory in the no-confidence vote ahead of time. His lies about the so-called threat letter have been called out and now he was on a mission to mislead the people of Pakistan because he thinks they are sheep.

The deputy speaker's ruling was rejected by the court and deemed unconstitutional after a thorough inspection of the evidence,” he added.

Shehbaz said if the prime minister had the audacity to go to the public after creating inflation, unemployment, hunger and hatred, he was more than welcome to do so.

“Imran Niazi was rejected by the people of Pakistan and he came into power through meddling with the RTS system,” Shehbaz said, adding that the premier had completely “lost his mind” after being defeated in the courts and the parliament.

The PML-N president said PM Imran Niazi should face the no-confidence motion in parliament where the opposition would “expose his lies through their vote”.

In a tweet, he said that the no-trust motion was tabled at the “request” of 220 million people of Pakistan, and would prove to be an important milestone in bringing Pakistan out of the darkness of despair and problems.

Separately, it emerged on Friday that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz was travelling to Islamabad to join the opposition in the NA on Saturday.

 

A leader is the one who knows the way, goes the way and shows the way. We Pakistanis are blessed to have a leader like Imran Khan. May ALLAH always help him. #امپورٹڈ_حکومت_نامنظور

کچھ وقت پہلے تک قبل ازوقت الیکشن کا مطالبہ کرنے والی اپوزیشن اب فوری عام انتخابات سے کیوں بھاگ رہی ہے۔ اگر اوورسیز پاکستانیوں کو ووٹ کے حق سے محروم کیا گیا تو 90لاکھ اوورسیز اور انکے خاندان انھیں کبھی معاف نہیں کرینگے۔#امپورٹڈ_حکومت_نامنظور

شہباز شریف جس نے ذرداری کو لاڑکانہ کی سڑکوں پر گھسیٹنا تھا اور پیٹ پھاڑ کر دولت نکالنی تھی اب وہ بیرونی سازش کے تحت سب چوروں کا وزیراعظم بننے کے لئیے دربدر ہورہا ہے۔ ان کا نظریہ صرف کرپشن ہے#امپورٹڈ_حکومت_نامنظور

آج خان صاحب نے اپنے سامنے صرف ایک صفحہ رکھا تھا جس پر صرف تین لائینیں لکھی تھیں۔پوری تقریر خان کے دل کی باتیں تھیں۔ چند فٹ دور بیٹھ کر اپنے مادر وطن کے لیڈر کو تقریر کرتے دیکھنا اور اس کی آواز اور جذبات میں وطن عزیز کی محبت محسوس کرنا ایک منفرد تجربہ ہے#امپورٹڈ_حکومت_نامنظور pic.twitter.com/W3Fe16WRS8
