Talking to media after the meeting of the Opposition here Saturday, Bilawal said that if the Speaker adopts undemocratic approach then the opposition would stage a sit-in. Let see how you organise the OIC conference? We will sit there on the floor until we are given not given our due right, he said.

He said that they are trying to hatch a conspiracy to prevent the use of the right to vote by violence. But I congratulate the people and nation of Pakistan. Imran has lost the majority. This is the victory of Pakistan and the Pakistani nation, Bilawal said.

He said that seeing the defeat, Imran is adopting undemocratic attitude, now he has resorted to using force, first the parliament was attacked, now he has attacked Sindh House, which is symbol of federation. He is giving the impression that if he does not play then he would not allow anyone to play.

Bilawal further added that the prime minister wanted a constitutional crisis and a chance to the third force to intervene.

Replying to a question, the PPP chairman said that we were waiting for the OIC conference to pass peacefully and everyone wanted the OIC conference to be held in a proper manner.

Later, opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif also supported Bilawal’s announcement and announced a sit-in in the House.

He said that it was the responsibility of the Speaker to convene the meeting.

“We are all Pakistanis, we will not allow you to violate the constitution,” he said.
