Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) has again linked the no-confidence motion against the government with immediate elections, according to Baaghi TV sources.
Pakistan’s leading investigative journalist Mubasher Lucman, in his tweet, said that ‘Nawaz Sharif will agree for a vote of no confidence if he is assured of an immediate elections following that no confidence move.’
“This means Mian sb is not interested in an interim set up for a year and wants immediate elections,” Lucman added.
My sources tell me that Nawaz Shareef will agree for a vote of no confidence if he is assured of an immediate elections following that no confidence move. This means Mian sb is not interested in an interim set up for a year and wants immediate elections.
