‘Himat hai toh governor raj laga ke dikhao’: Bilawal tells PM Imran Khan

  • “If you have the guts, then impose governor’s rule, Imran Khan!” Bilawal says.
  • “All of us will come to Islamabad and respond,” PPP chairman says.
  • PM Imran Khan, however, rules out imposing governor’s rule in Sindh.

ISLAMABAD: PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari Friday warned the federal government he would respond if it imposes the governor’s rule in Sindh — where the PPP is in power.

“If you have the guts, then impose governor’s rule, Imran Khan! Don’t delay it, impose it today,” Bilawal dared the PM as the political tensions rise in the country with the vote on the no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan.

“InshAllah, all of us will come to Islamabad and respond,” the PPP chairman said.

However, PM Imran Khan ruled out imposing the governor’s rule in Sindh, sources told Geo News Friday but decided to move the Supreme Court against the disgruntled members of the ruling PTI.

Chairing the PTI’s political committee today, the prime minister vowed to battle the Opposition and was confident of the failure of the no-confidence motion against him.

Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed had a day earlier proposed the premier take steps in order to stop the “horse-trading” from taking place at the Sindh House.

During the meeting, the majority of the participants opposed the move after the interior minister presented a summary in this regard.

“Only two federal ministers backed the idea,” sources said.

The PM, however, issued directives to deliberate further on the issue, saying the situation will deteriorate further by imposing the governor’s rule.

The Sindh House grabbed the spotlight after it was revealed on Thursday that around 24 PTI MNAs had been staying at the Sindh House in Islamabad — and some of them had publicly announced to go against the party.

In a press conference after the meeting, Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed said all the disgruntled PTI MPs who have sought refuge in Sindh House ahead of the no-confidence motion to return, assuring them that no action will be taken against them.

Concerned about the way the government is managing the matter, Asad Qaiser, the leader of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), has accused Maryam Nawaz and Khawaja Asif of trying to sabotage the ongoing negotiations.

In reaction to remarks made by Maryam Nawaz and Khawaja Asif, the former Speaker of the National Assembly stated that the administration is making contradictory assertions about the negotiations.

Maryam Nawaz and Khawaja Asif, he continued, seem to be trying to undermine the negotiations. Qaiser emphasized that despite the obstacles, PTI had worked to advance for Pakistan’s benefit.

He apologized for Maryam Nawaz’s and Khawaja Asif’s comments, saying that PTI had lowered its demands in order to assist the nation in progressing.

Qaiser asserted that the country as a whole supported PTI founder Imran Khan and that their efforts were all focused on bettering Pakistan’s circumstances.

In light of Pakistan’s present economic difficulties, Asad Qaiser emphasized that the PTI’s actions were motivated by a feeling of duty to the nation.

The party had just modified its demands to serve the nation, he made plain, and it was not frightened of anyone. Imran Khan, the founder of the PTI, had been promised a meeting with the government, but Qaiser claims that other excuses are now being offered.

He emphasized that PTI wanted the nation to be governed by the rule of law, with a strong parliament, an independent judiciary, and civilian supremacy. According to Qaiser, the party was dedicated to making sure that the people’s desire was followed when governing Pakistan.

Lastly, he noted that Imran Khan was becoming a prominent figure on a global scale in addition to being a leader in Pakistan. Even though incarceration was difficult for him, Imran Khan was making sacrifices for the future of the country.

Ali Amin Gandapur, the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, and Umar Tanveer Butt have been convicted of terrorism by the Anti-Terrorism Court (ATC) in Islamabad. The case is related to demonstrations against the disqualification of Imran Khan, the founder of the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI).

ATC Judge Tahir Abbas Sipra heard the case, and processes to designate former Federal Minister Amir Mahmood Kayani as a proclaimed offender were also initiated. PTI leaders Wasiq Qayyum and Faisal Javed also made an appearance before the court during the hearing.

The proclaimed offenders’ cases would be kept apart from the other accused by the court. For a few of the defendants who were not present, arrest warrants were issued.

In his petition, Senator Faisal Javed asked that the case’s terrorism-related clauses be eliminated. The hearing was postponed until January 15 by the court, which also ordered arguments on the petitions that were filed.

A demonstration against Imran Khan’s disqualification led to the case’s registration at Islamabad’s I-9 Police Station in 2022.
