A debate on the no-trust motion against the premier is set to take place in today’s NA session.
The NSC meeting has been called just hours before the start of a crucial NA session and a day after PM Imran decided to show senior journalists “written evidence” of the letter he has been saying contains proof of a foreign conspiracy against Pakistan’s government.
The premier shared this “threat letter” with Cabinet members in an emergency meeting a day earlier. The meeting was not attended by PTI’s two major allies — MQM-P and Balochistan Awami Party (BAP).
Meanwhile, Fawad also invited a group of journalists to meet PM Imran Khan where selected details of the letter were shared with them.
