You pulled down the elected government through a conspiracy. We had talked to IMF in far better position. We were standing the country on its own feet.
Who had stopped government? They could sign agreement four months before, he questioned.

Contempt of election commission notices were issued to Imran Khan, me and Fawad Chaudhry, he indicated. It has been enshrined in clear terms in the constitution that election commission is not court. Supreme Court or high court can initiate action under article 204 of the constitution. We have filed petition against the illegal notice, he underlined.
What decisions are coming from election commission against PTI have no scope in the law, he underscored.
He indicated that Imran Khan is being asked to appeal for fundraising. Talks are underway in this regard. Soon this matter will be decided, he added.
