Barrister Murtaza Wahab, Spokesperson for the Sindh Government and Advisor to CM Sindh on Law, Environment, Climate Change and Coastal Development has said that Prime Minister may have made Sheikh Rasheed the Home Minister for his own rescue but the selected PM should know that the people have girded up their loins to send him back home. “Actually he himself has made up his mind to go home,” he added. The adviser resolved that no matter how many containers are kept, the Lahore meeting will be held at any cost. He expressed these views while addressing the inauguration of Neighborhood Park in Clifton on Saturday and later talking to the media.
