New Delhi: Amid the fluid political situation, the Pakistani military establishment has denied the allegation of Prime Minister Imran Khan that he was given three options ahead of the no-trust vote by the 'establishment'-- resignation, holding early elections or face the no-confidence motion.
The military establishment said that it did not bring the Opposition`s options, and rather it was the federal Government that telephoned the top brass while asking for a meeting to discuss the ongoing political scenario, The News International reported.
The Chief of Pakistan Army Staff General Qamar Javed Bajwa and the Directive General (DG) of Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) met Pakistan PM on Wednesday at the request of the ruling government, according to The News International citing sources.
During the meeting, three "options" were mutually discussed between the government and the military side.
However, Khan agreed to the third option -- `dissolving the National Assembly`, sources said, adding that this was stated by the Prime Minister as workable.
