ISLAMABAD: The ruling PTI’s Senator Faisal Javed Khan on Wednesday announced that Prime Minister Imran Khan has "postponed" his address to the nation that was scheduled to take place today.
Without giving any reason, Faisal wrote on his Twitter handle: “PM Imran Khan's address to the nation for today has been postponed.”
Earlier in the day, Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed had told the media that PM Imran Khan will likely address the nation today amid a deepening political crisis in the country after the Opposition filed a no-trust motion against the premier.
Speaking to the media, Sheikh Rasheed said an emergency cabinet meeting had been convened today after which the prime minister will address the nation.
Earlier today, the premier announced that he will reveal to senior journalists and PTI allies “written evidence" of the letter he has been saying contains evidence of a foreign conspiracy against the government, as he wants to silence his critics who have been calling news of the letter "a drama".
Following the announcement, Rasheed revealed that Information Minister Fawad Chaudhry has invited 10 journalists today who will be shown the letter.
“Politics has started,” he said, adding that voting on the no-confidence motion will be held on April 3.
