“We defeated the government earlier in the Senate and in the National Assembly and will do it again in the future,” Bilawal said while referring to the latest Senate elections.

He challanged PM Imran Khan to dissolve the assembly “which he has always threatened to do,” if he has trust in the people that would elect him again.

“Even if he doesn’t resign and dissolve the assembly, the Opposition is well prepared. We will bring the no-confidence motion and take this democratic war to Parliament and get successful,” Bilawal said.

Moreover, Bilawal also said that that the way all the Oppostion parties have come together to oppose the incumbent government has taken the government under pressure.

“The government has never been under this much pressure as it is nowadays.”

He further stated that he has been listening to PM’s statements for the last three years and has observed that he [PM Imran Khan] is addicting to taking U-turns while the PPP does not.

We have always been consistent in our stance, he added.

“PPP’s stance from day one has been to counter him [PM Imran Khan] on both the fronts, that is the people and the parliament,” Bilawal said, adding that the majority constituted the PTI-led government was not an organic majority.

He said that it is an inorganic majority that has been enforced upon the country.

When asked about the failed no-confidence motion that had been tabled against former prime minister Benazir Bhutto, Bilawal said that the main difference between it and the one they are trying to bring is that the former was an undemocratic move.
