“The citizens of Pakistan stand behind PM Imran Khan as well,” the confident information minister said while speaking in Geo News’ programme “Naya Pakistan”.

The federal minister said a person should have the tendency to resolve issues amicably and work along with the institutions.

“If soldiers are being martyred in Kargil and the if then PM (Nawaz Sharif) goes to India to expand steel business, who will stand by him?”

Chaudhry said when the PML-N was in government, they were unpopular and their ties with the institutions were not good as well. The information minister claimed the Nawaz Sharif-led party had failed to rule Pakistan.

“Institutions want to see a person in charge who is loyal to Pakistan,” Chaudhry added.

The statement comes in the backdrop of the ruling party, PTI, launching a campaign in order to counter the Opposition’s efforts to bring a no-trust motion.

In his address in the first campaign rally in Mandi Bahauddin on Friday, PM Imran said that letting PML-N supremo Nawaz leave Pakistan was a “major mistake” made by the incumbent government.

“I have a message for the Sharif family: The captain is ready for all your plans. You will not only face defeat, but all of you will go to jail,” the prime minister vowed.
