His statement comes after the PTI dissident lawmaker Raja Riaz confirmed that as many as 24 ruling PTI MNAs were staying at the Sindh House in Islamabad due to “security concerns”. He also rejected reports that the federal government was planning to raid the Sindh House. “We are not sending police to the Sindh House as they (dissident PTI lawmakers) went to Sindh House because of their greed for money,” he said, adding that the matter was between the lawmakers and their constituents. He claimed that the PTI MNAs had been “attracted by money”, saying it was a very good thing that they had been “exposed”.
The interior minister said the session of the National Assembly could be called on March 21 while the government had announced holidays in the capital on March 21, 22 and 23 in view of the Organisation of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) summit.
“After March 25, it will be Sheikh Rashid, the media and Imran Khan’s support. There will be a sea of people on the 27th,” he said referring to the PTI’s planned rally at Islamabad’s D-Chowk.
