The PML-N approached the PML-Q leadership after 14 years to seek its support in sending PM Imran packing.
Reportedly, Salik Hussain and Shafay Hussain called on Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shehbaz at his office last month and announced full support to the PML-N. Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah too claimed that Moonis Elahi was responsible for the PML-Q failing to cut a deal with the Sharifs as Moonis wanted his family to support Imran Khan.
