Lahore, November 28, 2022 (PPI-OT):A delegation of the Pakistan Broadcasters Association (PBA), comprising chairman Shakeel Masood Hussain, secretary general Mian Amir Mahmood, Naz Afrin Sehgal and chairman Nai Baat Media Network Chaudhry Abdul Rehman, called on the Chief Minister Punjab Chaudhry Parvez Elahi at his office on Monday.
The CM asserted that they are siding with the chairman of the PTI, Imran Khan and the Punjab assembly would be dissolved when Imran Khan wants. We are always ready to dissolve the assembly on the instructions of Imran Khan; he repeated and pointed out that they enjoy a majority in the assembly. The number of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Muslim League-Q members in the Punjab assembly is 191. The opposition is in the minority and will remain in the minority, he added. He said that the opposition can only raise slogans, it is not their job to bring a no-confidence motion.
They can bring the no-confidence motion, which they like. If the assembly is in session, there can be no voting on the no-confidence motion and no vote of confidence. If the assembly is in session, the governor’s rule cannot be imposed; he explained and asserted that every job was being done within the scope of the constitution and law.
Meanwhile, the federal government has made the economy worse. People are cursing the PDM-led government as Shehbaz Sharif can only beg, and he could beseech well. Even the householders close their doors when a beggar comes to the door to beg repeatedly. Shehbaz Sharif did not give a single penny to the flood victims of Punjab; the CM regretted this and pointed out that the provincial government has done the resettlement of the flood victims with its resources.
The chief minister assured that the Punjab government would ensure immediate payment of the pending bills of the PBA. He also expressed good wishes for the newly elected PBA chairman and office-bearers. It is hoped that the new body will use all its capabilities for developing the media industry, he concluded. Provincial Information Secretary Asif Bilal Lodhi, former principal secretary GM Sikandar, Press Secretary to the CM Iqbal Chaudhary and DGPR Afraz Ahmed were also present.
