Every party wants to have its own interim PM: Sheikh Rasheed

Rawalpindi:  Awami Muslim League chief and former interior minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmed on Monday says every party wants to appoint its own interim prime minister but awaiting approval. 

Rasheed announced in a message on the social media platform X (formerly Twitter) that decisions regarding promotions, changes, appointments, and additional uplift schemes would be made in the upcoming eight days, along with decisions regarding party infighting and problems with influential people.

He claimed that the ruling parties desired a caretaker prime minister who would serve as their puppet, go along with their every whim, and carry out all of their requests.

Former minister questioned how the prime minister could address the issues of the underprivileged citizens of his country if he could not carry out his intention to have his brother return to the country in 15 months despite holding a diplomatic passport.

According to the former interior minister, the PDM would learn how popular they were if they went in front of the public without following protocol. Who would want to invest in a nation where terrorism claims the lives of 60 people every day? He declared.

The head of AML claimed that Maryam Nawaz and Asif Zardari's silence was not unintentional. The gap between PML-N leaders is growing, he declared. It appears that there is a problem, he remarked. 

The country's political future would be shaped by these ten days, during which time all significant decisions would be made.  Rashid remarked, "Those who are deceiving others will also experience betrayal and then they will regret their actions.

“They are destined to be doomed, it’s writing on the wall now,” Rashid concluded.

The senior lawmaker claimed that the political scene was looking gloomy to him.  Rulers would be doomed to shame and disgrace.

He claimed that neither they (rulers) could win the hearts of the common people nor did they command respect from the privileged class.

8 روز میں صرف ترقیوں تبدیلیوں تعنتیوں اور تختیاں لگانے کا ہی فیصلہ نہیں ہونا بلکہ ن لیگ کی گھریلو سیاسی لڑائی اور طاقتور لوگوں سے الھجے ہوئے معاملات کا بھی فیصلہ ہونا ہے ایک ایسے نگران وزیراعظم کی ضروت ہے جوچابی کاکھلوناہوفرمائشی پروگرام ہو خواہش پر خبر بنائے جب بیٹھنے کا کہیں…
