ISLAMABAD: Prime Minister Imran Khan has prioritised the completion of Shaukat Khanum Memorial Trust (SKMT) Karachi instead of giving more attention to the no-trust move against him.
Just a day after the submission of a no-confidence motion against him, PM Imran Khan has shown its priority to complete the state-of-the-art Shaukat Khanum Memorial Cancer Hospital Karachi, the largest SKMT across the country, instead of giving attention to the political lobbying to foil the opposition’s no-trust move.
It may be noted that the opposition lawmakers had submitted a no-confidence motion against PM Imran Khan and requisition for a National Assembly (NA) session to the assembly’s Secretariat yesterday.
