Sindh House has become the centre of attention as the Opposition and government scramble for votes on the no-confidence motion.

The development took place after the PTI alleged that horse-trading was happening there and many PTI lawmakers were staying there.

So far, only Raja Riaz and Nawab Sher Waseer have come out in the open for being present in the Sindh House, saying that they have shifted to the building as they feared the government would take action against them.

But sources have told Geo News that more lawmakers are staying at the Sindh House.

Ali Amin Gandapur, the chief minister of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, has threatened to storm Islamabad, according to Khawaja Saad Rafique, a former minister and leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N). This is a very serious situation.

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s Khyber Pakhtunkhwa administration has reportedly launched attacks on the federal capital in the past in an attempt to seize Islamabad, according to Saad Rafiq on the social media platform X (previously Twitter).

“However, PTI got nothing and it resulted in creating chaos, hatred and economic destruction,” he continued.

He added, “If the anarchists attack Islamabad to occupy it this time too, it will become impossible for them to return as rulers.”

According to the leader of the PML-N, fascist behavior will no longer be accepted, and the dirty politics of violence, fire, and ransacking will no longer be effective.

The PTI, he said, has to act rationally and refrain from inciting another May 9.
