Pakistan PM Imran Khan has offered to dissolve the assembly if a no-confidence motion against him is withdrawn. According to the sources, an "important personality" has given a message from the PM to the Leader of Opposition in National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif, says Pakistan's Geo News.

Imran Khan will address the nation later tonight ahead of the no-confidence motion against the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI)-led government, said federal minister Fawad Chaudhry on Thursday.

Taking to Twitter, Fawad Chaudhry said: "Prime Minister Imran Khan will address the nation tonight". The development comes at a time when Pakistan National Assembly is all set to take up discussion on the no-confidence motion against Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan-led government in the Lower House session which is scheduled at 4 pm today.

The National Assembly secretariat issued the order on Wednesday night for the discussion on the no-trust motion for today's (Thursday) agenda, Geo TV reported. Earlier, on Monday, Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N) President Shahbaz Sharif tabled the no-confidence motion. With this move, Imran Khan became the third Pakistani PM to face the no-confidence motion.
