\n islamabad
\nAs the race for Punjab\u2019s chief minister\u2019s election heats up, PTI Chairman Imran Khan claimed on Wednesday that horse-trading was happening in Lahore with MPAs being offered Rs500 million to switch their loyalty.
\n\u201cToday, Lahore is seeing a repetition of the Sindh House horse-trading episode that happened in Islamabad, with up to Rs500 million being offered to buy MPAs,\u201d tweeted the PTI chairman. He alleged that PPP Co-chairperson Asif Ali Zardari was the \u201cmain architect\u201d behind this, adding that the former president has secured an \u201cNRO for his corruption and purchases people with looted wealth\u201d.
\nThe former prime minister also demanded the PPP leader be jailed.
\n\u201cThis is not only an attack on our democracy but also on the moral fabric of our society. Had Supreme Court taken action and debarred these turncoats for life, it would have acted as a deterrent,\u201d claimed the PTI chairman.
\nHe also asked the \u201chandlers\u201d of the incumbent government whether they realised the \u201csevere damage being done to the nation\u201d.
\nThe PTI chairman further claimed that after his government was \u201ctoppled with stolen money from Sindh and NRO 2 achieved, certified criminal Asif Zardari in cahoots with Sharif mafia now seeking to steal Punjab people\u2019s mandate by trying to purchase MPAs\u201d.
\n\u201cWant to ask Honourable Supreme Court are they not cogniscant of the damage being wreaked? Isn\u2019t destruction of our democracy, Constitution and nation\u2019s morality a fit case for Suo Moto action? Are the \u201cNeutrals\u201d not realising how our beloved country is literally being destroyed on all fronts by the Imported government brought in through US regime change conspiracy?\u201d asked the former prime minister.
\nPTI to move Supreme Court against horse-trading: Fawad
\nOn the other hand, PTI leader Fawad Chaudhry said that the party will move the Supreme Court against horse-trading, accusing the PML-N of giving Rs400 million to PTI MPA Masood Majeed.
\nSpeaking at a press conference, the senior PTI leader said that Majeed has left the country and reached Turkey after taking a huge sum of money.
\n\u201cPML-N\u2019s Ataullah Tarar contacted our MPA. They are buying MPAs by giving them Rs350 million,\u201d Chaudhry alleged, saying that there will not be any democracy in the country if this keeps happening.
\n\u201cWe want Rana Sanaullah, Zardari and Ataullah Tarar to get arrested and the court to conduct an immediate inquiry into the matter,\u201d he added.

\nIn a tweet, Raas referred to the PML-N as \u201cchors (thiefs)\u201d.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
