I congratulate the people and thank Allah – Imran Khan

President Imran Khan while addressing the nation after the dismissal of the no-confidence motion, said that there was a conspiracy taking place in front of all the people. The traitors were sitting and conspiracies were being hatched. I want to convey to them that Allah is watching over the people. The people will not allow such a conspiracy to succeed. Deputy Speaker today has exercised the power to make decisions. Since then, I have just sent instructions to the President to dissolve the Parliament house.

In a democratic society, we should go to people and people decide the result of the election. Also, the future of the country cannot be decided on the strength of money. All their money will waste. The people have taken this decision. I tell the people today that prepare for the election and you are the one to decide. I congratulate the people and thank Allah that such a big conspiracy was unearthed. Today an attempt made to overthrow the Government elected by the people has failed.
