On Tuesday, former interior minister Sheikh Rasheed said that important developments were expected in the next 48 hours as the present government was finding it hard to rule the country. Addressing a press conference in Islamabad, Sheikh Rasheed said that the country was going to have a caretaker setup very soon. Moreover, he claimed that the majority of parties were in the favour of early elections. “Even the MQM-P has now said it will prefer to sit on the opposition benches rather than remaining part of the coalition government,” he said. Referring to the change of government through a no-trust motion, Rasheed went on to say that whosoever had made that ‘masterplan’ was a fool. Sheikh Rasheed further pointed out that “PTI Chairman Imran Khan will give a call for the long march in Multan on May 20.” He alleged that the government was working on stopping further investigation into corruption references against former president and PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari, Punjab Chief Minister Hamza Shehbaz and Zardari’s friend Ayyan Ali. He was of the view that whenever former prime minister and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif would arrive in Pakistan, people would hoot him and call him ‘Chaur, Chaur and Chaur’ (Thief).
