Former federal minister Faisal Vawda on Wednesday claimed that former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi would resign from National Assembly (NA) after differences emerged with the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
In a statement, Vawda alleged that the former prime minister would resign from National Assembly (NA) in a few days.
He further claimed that Abbasi would resign along with other PML-N lawmakers. However, the PML-N and Abbasi have not responded to the claims yet.
Earlier, it was reported that the PML-N MPAs had blamed Special Assistant to the Prime Minister Atta Tarar for its defeat in the Punjab Assembly.
According to sources, the PML-N lawmakers exchanged heated words at a party meeting. A PML-N MPA and a former senior provincial minister lambasted Atta Tarar for defeat in the Punjab Assembly.
He said that those who were sitting in the gallery were the reason behind the defeat and their miscalculations and wrong planning resulted in Parvez Elahi’s successful vote of confidence.
The federal interior minister was also sitting in the gallery. The PML-N Punjab MPAs walked out of the meeting as a protest, sources added.
It is pertinent to mention 186 MPAs reposed their trust in Elahi during the vote of confidence.
