Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari on Monday asked the Inter-Services Public Relations director general if the National Security Committee has declared the 197 members of the National Assembly as traitors and part of the 'foreign conspiracy'.

Taking to Twitter, the PPP chairman said that Imran Khan was using the pretext of a foreign conspiracy to justify his coup, adding that could the Foreign Office produce any official correspondence on the said conspiracy.

PPP chairman further said that this kind of plot must be uncovered by Pakistan's intelligence agencies, adding that "Imran's ego is not more important than Pakistan."

Prime Minister Imran Khan on Sunday had advised President Arif Alvi to dissolve the assembly after NA Deputy Speaker rejected the opposition's no-confidence motion and adjourned the session.

“I want to congratulate the whole nation on the speaker’s decision to reject the no-confidence motion, which was aimed at changing the regime that was a foreign conspiracy hatched from outside,” PM Imran had said during his address to the nation on Sunday.

Earlier today (Monday) while addressing a press conference along with PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif and other opposition leaders Bilawal Bhutto urged the Supreme Court to form a full-court bench to hear the suo motu case on the prevailing political crisis in order to stop Prime Minister Imran Khan’s alleged coup.

The Supreme Court on Sunday had taken suo motu notice of the political and constitutional crisis that emerged following Deputy Speaker National Assembly's decision to reject the opposition's no-confidence motion

“We request them [Supreme Court] to address this coup, Constitutional crisis and form a full-court bench – including all judges. No confidence vote should be completed,” Bilawal said and demanded that the no-confidence vote should be completed.
