ISLAMABAD : (Web Desk)- As the PTI-led government make efforts to thwart Opposition’s no-trust motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan, Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry said that a “major action” is being planned against horse-trading in Sindh House.
The statement allegation was made by the information minister during a press conference in Islamabad.
“Sindh House, Islamabad, is currently the centre of horse-trading,” Fawad said while accusing the Opposition of buying votes of MNAs.
“The way markets are being set up is against the Constitution.”
He said that there were reports of huge sums of money being shifted to Sindh House, adding that PPP has deputed police outside it to accommodate people there.
When asked if the government plans to raid Sindh House, Fawad said he doesn’t know about a raid but there would be a strict action.
Responding to a question if the government was looking for “12 men”, the minister said:
“What [do you mean by] ‘looking for’, we know [these] 12 men.”
Following Fawad Chaudhry’s statement, PPP Chairperson Bilawal Bhutto Zardari warned the government not to provoke the Opposition, adding that they do not want “anarchy in Islamabad” due to the OIC conference.
“MNAs have been threatened with violence, arrest and dire consequences if they take part in no confidence process. Their lives, liberty and family are under threat. MNAs will take any and all means for their own protection against this fascist regime,” tweeted Bilawal.
