Imran Khan Opposition would lose this match badly: Imran Khan warns on no-trust motion
Islamabad: Prime Minister Imran Khan warned Pakistan's opposition parties, which have filed a no-trust motion against him in the National Assembly, that they are going to 'lose this match badly'.
The premier faces a major threat in the National Assembly as his fate is set to be decided in a no-trust resolution amid a number of own party's MNAs turning against him and indicating that they would vote against him — something that he and his ministers allege has been due to bribes offered by the opposition alliance, reports Dawn News.
PM Imran addressed a rally when he said he had been advised to offer like-for-like bribes and bring back dissident MNAs to the party fold.
He said he would prefer to lose his government than offer bribes and take the same route as the opposition allegedly has.
"I curse on the government that requires me to bring back defected leaders using public money," he told the rally as quoted by Dawn News.
PM Imran vowed to "forgive" his MNAs who have threatened to defect and vote against him in the upcoming no-trust move, saying "I will forgive you if you come back. We all commit mistakes. I am like a father who forgives his children and I will pardon you as well."
