Earlier in the day, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari once again accused Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) ministers of mainstreaming and getting support of banned outfits in the 2018 general election.
In a series of tweets, he demanded that the government must remove the ministers “having ties with proscribed organisation”.
Taking a swipe at the ruling PTI, Mr Bhutto-Zardari said: “The government has responded to my demand to sack ministers associated with banned outfits by declaring me anti-state, issuing death threats & NAB notices.” “None of this deters us from our principle stand; form joint NSC parliamentary committee & act against banned outfits.”
