ISLAMABAD, May 6: Former information minister and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Fawad Chaudhry has predicted the end of the Shehbaz Sharif-led government, saying that three of the PML-N allies are parting ways.
Addressing a press conference in Islamabad on Friday, Fawad said that failure to procure wheat at the end of the year will lead to a flour crisis. “Punjab’s water is being given to Sindh to please the PPP.”
He said that the chief secretary of Punjab and IG Police are unsure to whom they should listen as there is practically no government in the province to take administrative decisions.
“As per our information, three allies have refused to support Shehbaz Sharif and the government is ending by May 20,” he added.
The former information minister also said that he expected Chief Justice of Pakistan (CJP) Umar Ata Bandial to take a decision this week regarding the formation of a judicial commission to investigate the party’s claims of a “foreign conspiracy” behind former prime minister Imran Khan’s ouster.
If the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) is unable to hold elections in three months then its chairman should resign, he added.-NNI
