PML-Q Parliamentary Leader in the Punjab Assembly Moonis Elahi on Saturday said his party will support the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) nominees for the chief minister and speaker slots in the Punjab Assembly.
“The PTI will support PML-Q’s Waqas Moakkal for deputy speaker in the Punjab Assembly in return,” he told reporters outside the Punjab Assembly.
The PML-Q leader said that deliberations for a united opposition were in progress and the parties would reach a decision with the passage of time.
He said the PML-N had made big claims during its election campaign, adding that it would have to fulfill all promises otherwise the people would reject it in the next elections.
To a question, he said the PML-N should overcome the energy crisis and stop US unmanned drone attacks.
To a query, he said the PML-Q would play a strong role as opposition inside and outside the assembly.
Regarding a weak opposition in the Punjab Assembly, he said Zulfikar Ali Bhutto had achieved a similar majority in the 70s but the opposition had played a robust role.
