Two PTI leaders change twitter bio to 'former' federal minister

In an apparent acceptance of looming defeat in the no-confidence motion, two Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leaders Fawad Chaudhry and Shah Mahmood Qureshi on Saturday changed their Twitter bio to "former" federal minister.

Imran Khan loyalists - Chaudhry and Qureshi - changed their Twitter bio to "former" Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting and "former" Foreign Minister of Pakistan respectively. However, minutes later, Chaudhry restored his bio to its original state while Qureshi's bio still remains unchanged.

The development comes as the proceedings of the National Assembly session with the specific mandate to take up the no-confidence motion against the Imran Khan-led government and the election of the new leader of the House, if the motion gets successful, is underway.
