"Move To The Streets": Imran Khan Appeals Ahead Of No-Trust Vote
NDTV
The Opposition is confident that its motion would be carried as many lawmakers from the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have come out in the open against Prime Minister Khan.
Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan on Saturday called on his countrymen to take to the streets ahead of a no-trust vote that could see him thrown out of office, stressing again that foreign conspirators are looking to change the leadership in Islamabad.
No Pakistan Prime Minister has ever completed a full term, and Mr Khan is facing the biggest challenge to his rule since being elected in 2018, with opponents accusing him of economic mismanagement and foreign-policy bungling.
"I have been planning how to face them. Insha Allah (God willing), you will see how I will face them tomorrow. I want my people to be vigilant, alive. If it had been another country where such things were happening, people would have moved to the streets.
"I call on all of you to move to the streets today and tomorrow. You should do so for your conscience, in the interest of this nation. No party should force you to do that. You should be out on the streets for the future of your children. You should all go out and show that you are vigilant," Mr Khan said addressing people during a Q&A session with ARY News.
