Meanwhile, in a post on Twitter, premier said that the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief continues to engage in a vile, sinister and malicious campaign against COAS General Syed Asim Munir.
"Through such highly condemnable antics, he is only exposing himself, the core of which is defined by putting his personal interest (power grab) over everything else," the PM said.
Shehbaz Sharif said his trick of using the proxies to threaten the Army Chief of an assassination attempt has been badly exposed.
The premier said that the people of Pakistan and the political parties stand behind their Army Chief and armed forces like a rock and will thwart any attempt and conspiracy at undermining their prestige, honour and integrity.
