Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed on Wednesday said that this is a year of local government elections and will also contest the next general elections under the leadership of Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan.
Speaking to media persons in Islamabad, Sheikh Rasheed said reducing poverty is the agenda of Imran Khan and expressed hope that the premier will be able to control inflation in the last year of his term.
Talking about the return of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to the country, Sheikh Rasheed offered a plane ticket to the PML-N supremo out of his own pocket. He said Nawaz Sharif’s return to the country will have no effect on the country.
“Prime Minister (PM) Imran Khan will complete his five-year term,” Sheikh Rasheed was quoted as saying.—INP
