Maryam had spent several hours in Lahore on Thursday mustering support for the PDM’s Minar-e-Pakistan jalsa.
PML-N leaders have said that “big decisions” are expected to take place at the jalsa with many political analysts predicting the PDM lawmakers will announce resigning from the provincial and national assemblies.
Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that if the Opposition lawmakers resign from parliament, the government will hold by-elections on their seats “and come back with more strength”.
