Sources informed that the PTI has chalked out a strategy to delay voting on the no-trust resolution. As per the plan, the PTI ministers including Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Shireen Mazari and others will give long speeches to delay the crucial vote that might send government packing.
It is also feared that a scuffle will break out in the lower house on the matter of lettergate, sources said adding that one group of the treasury members would raise slogans in protest against the regime change through what they call ‘foreign plot’.
