Raja Riaz, one of the PTI MPs residing in Sindh House, claimed on Wednesday that if the PM assures all MLAs that no action will be taken against those who decide to vote against him on the day of the no-confidence motion, they will are set to return to the Parliament Lodge, the official residential complex for Members of Parliament.
“Right now, around 24 MNAs are living here. Many other PTI MLAs and ministers are also ready to come here but the opposition parties are unable to accommodate them.
