Mass Resignation Could Resolve Political Turmoil: Sheikh Rasheed
Islamabad, April 8: Pakistan Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed on Friday said that mass resignations from the treasury benches could resolve the current political turmoil in the country.
Addressing press persons in Islamabad, he said “I used to suggest three months back: tender your resignations, dissolve the assemblies, impose an emergency, impose governor’s rule. I was right in all instances,” Rasheed was quoted as saying. “I stand by my decision of mass resignations. We should take to the streets and expose these hired guns (the Opposition).” the interior minister said.
“We will fight till our last breath against these thugs, robbers and looters,” he added, referring to the opposition.
The Supreme Court of Pakistan on Thursday restored the National Assembly (NA) after it declared the government’s decision to dissolve the assembly and NA Deputy Speaker Qasim Suri’s ruling against the Constitution.
Pakistan’s Apex court has ordered NA Speaker Asad Qasier to summon the session on Saturday (April 9) not later than 10:30am to allow the vote on the no-confidence motion against Prime Minister Imran Khan.
