The political situation in the country has changed dramatically since the no-confidence motion was introduced. In Punjab, after the resignation of Sardar Usman Buzdar, Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi is the PML-Q and PTI candidate while Hamza Shehbaz is the PML-N candidate for the post of Chief Minister.
Earlier, Aleem Khan, a member of the Punjab Assembly and a former senior minister, leveled serious allegations against the Prime Minister, First Lady Bushra Bibi and her close friend Farah Khan. A spokesman for the chief minister’s office said Aleem Khan should be ashamed of his allegations.
