Lahore (HRNW) The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM)-led government can victimise the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid leadership if the assemblies are dissolved earlier than the original schedule, PML-Q leader Moonis Elahi told PTI chief Imran Khan, media reported citing sources.
The development came Thursday during a meeting of a PML-Q delegation, headed by former federal minister Moonis, with Khan in Lahore as political activity heats up in the country ahead of the dissolution of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab assemblies.
“You are authorised to make a final decision [on assembly dissolution],” Elahi conveyed the message of Parvez Elahi to the PTI chairman, the well-placed sources unfold the inside story of the meeting.
The PML-Q leader reassured the former premier that the assembly would be dissolved whenever the latter asks. Elahi, however, suggested that it was not the appropriate time for the dissolution of the assemblies.
The PML-Q leader apprised Khan that the majority of his party’s lawmaker wants the continuation of development work in their concerned areas.
He added that the development work is underway in the constituencies, and the majority of the members also want the same.
The sources privy to the matter said that PML-Q had demanded seat adjustment in 25 constituencies with the PTI before the dissolution of the Punjab Assembly.
Maintaining its separate identity, the PML-Q wants to go with the PTI in electoral politics, the sources said.
