Sheikh Rasheed makes new prediction for PTI govt, Maulana Fazl

ISLAMABAD: Federal Railways’ Minister Sheikh Rasheed on Tuesday predicted that Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman is going back to home and the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) led government will complete its five-year tenure, ARY News reported.

Sheikh Rasheed in his latest video message on Twitter said, “Insha-Allah, Maulana is going [home] and Islamabad will be a peaceful place again and the present government will complete its five years [tenure].”

The federal minister slammed the opposition parties by saying that anti-Pakistan remarks had been raised in the last four days in the bard of democracy which exposed its motives of launching criticism to weaken the national institutions.

He said that the language used on the container was not in the interest of Pakistan as it is favourable only to India to push back the Kashmir dispute. Rasheed added that the political parties adopted democratic behaviour to deal with the issues through a ‘political style’ but not to spread anarchy ‘by taking alongside people like Mahmood Achakzai’.
