Imran Khan calls party meeting to mull NA return to send PM Shehbaz packing.

PTI Chairman Imran Khan has called a meeting of the senior leadership of the party to deliberate over the move to return to the National Assembly to ensure that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif failed to take the trust vote.

The meeting would be held later in the day at Mr Khan's Zaman Park residence to form a strategy to give a tough time to Shehbaz Sharif and stop dissident PTI leaders from giving the vote of confidence to the premier.

The meeting would also discuss a plan to remove PTI dissident Raja Riaz from the position of the parliamentary party leader in the National Assembly as his decision would be crucial during the trust vote.

A day earlier, Mr Khan, in a meeting with media persons, dropped a hint of his party's return to the assembly as PTI feared that Mr Riaz could decide in favour of the government if President Arif Alvi ask him to take the trust vote.
