Railways Minister Sheikh Rashid Ahmad has said that India had started anguishing fire in Indian Occupied Kashmir.
He said that role of Pakistan in the region was looking prominent and its responsibilities can be increased as the world order could be changed after coronavirus pandemic. He was addressing a press conference at the PR headquarters here on Saturday.
He said that India could attempt any conspiracy against Pakistan, adding that atrocities against Muslim citizens in different parts of India were spreading. “It will be a blunder of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, if he under-estimates Pakistan and try to damage our country,” he added.
He said, “Credit goes to Prime Minister Imran Khan and his cabinet which pointed out the illegal import of medicines from India.” He assured the nation that Prime Minister Imran Khan would never spare culprits involved in any scam, adding that he (PM) would never leave the culprits of sugar and flour scams after declaration of forensic report of the investigation.
He said that National Accountability Bureau (NAB) would emerge as a “Tarzan” after Eidul Fitr and it would bring looters of every party in the court without any discrimination. He said that PML (N) leader Shehbaz Sharif once again wanted to flee, but this time he would not be able to do so as he had failed to answer the questions of the NAB regarding his illegal assets.
To a question about investigation commission to probe IPPs scam, he said that it could take five to six months as its body had not been constituted yet.
He said two to three trains will hopefully resume operation before Eid. He said that the Pakistan Railways is suffering loss of Rs 5 billion per month due to suspension of operation owing to the coronavirus lockdown.
Sheikh Rashid said the federal government supported us in resuming train operation from May 10, but some provinces were not on board. We shall try to present our case again for review in two to three days.
Talking about politics, he said Chaudhry brothers are our own and nothing unwanted will happen. He said Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif has left all his documents in London.
The federal minister also predicted that it is difficult for Shehbaz Sharif to go to London.
The anti-corruption watchdog is going to become a ‘Tarzan’ which will not spare anyone whether from the government or the opposition, Sheikh Rashid said, adding that Prime Minister Imran Khan will take action the day forensic report of sugar mills comes.
