Awami Muslim League chief and former federal interior minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed has said that People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari cannot become prime minister of any country. In a sarcastic remark on the social media website Twitter on Monday, the former minister wrote that there’s no tax on dreaming. Bilawal undertook 65 foreign trips but got nothing, he added. Rashid predicted that the dreams of the PML-N, the PPP, and Maulana Fazlur Rehman would be shattered.
The government has burdened the poor with inflation. The base rate of electricity has been increased from Rs25 to Rs29 [a unit]. Laptops won’t make a difference. Those who are paying electricity bills and buying flour, would give a 440-volt shock [to the rulers] in coming elections, he continued.
He said gulf between the masses and the [ruling] 13 parties has widened. Poverty-stricken people have been committing suicide, but their families say the cause of death is a heart attack because they don’t want post mortem examinations and police investigations. Rashid said people like Fazlur Rehman have left behind after emigration of 800,000 professionals, doctors and engineers.
The head of Awami Muslim League said that a two-thirds majority is required to make Nawaz Sharif eligible [to contest election] again, which is not possible even after the coming general elections. Nawaz Sharif is not crazy that he will come back to Pakistan. From Saudi Arabia, he will go to London. He went to Saudi Arabia by tendering a written apology and to London on a surety bond. Allah knows when and in what condition he will return to Pakistan, he stated.
