He said that PM Nawaz Sharif has two options left. He added that the prime minister should present himself for accountability like United Kingdom’s ex-premier David Cameron or to step down like the Iceland former PM Sigmundur David Gunnlaugsson.
4. He has only 2 options now, as 2 other democratic PMs had after Panama leaks:to go the Cameron route presenting himself for accountability

5. Or to resign like PM of Iceland did. He cannot seek shelter behind Indian aggression in IOK/LoC esp as he failed to respond firmly to it.

Imran Khan led PTI has decided to boycott the joint session of the parliament.
Chairman PTI talking to media yesterday said that the joint session will result in nothing substantial except for “endorsing Nawaz Sharif as Prime Minister who has lost all moral authority”.
“We will continue our National Assembly boycott till either Nawaz Sharif resigns or presents himself for accountability according to the Terms of References (TORs) decided by the opposition,” he said.
He said the purpose of the joint session was to convey a message that the whole nation is united against Indian aggression and we already stand with Kashmiris.
Imran said despite reservations PTI sent Shah Mehmood Qureshi and Dr Shireen Mazari on Monday at the All Parties Conference (APC) for national unity and to convey a strong message to Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
‘Orange Lines, metro buses don’t make great nations’
Later PTI Chairman while addressing a large gathering on the ‘World Teacher’s Day’ in Peshawar said, teachers, not Orange Line Trains or metros make great nations in the world.
He said that there was a time when the system of education was flourishing in Pakistan, which was ruined by governments through corruption.
Khan said his government in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa was trying to make institutions stronger in the province while reforming systems in schools and hospitals.
He announced that the provincial government has inducted at least 34 thousand students into the government schooling system, which was a great achievement.
