ISLAMABAD: Minister for Interior Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed on Sunday said that the opposition alliance Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) is no more.
Addressing a ceremony, Sheikh Rasheed said that negotiations with India could not take place unless any developments on Kashmir issue took place. The interior minister further said that the ceasefire agreement between India and Pakistan is a welcome step.
Talking about PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz, Sheikh Rasheed said that no application regarding the removal of Maryam from Exit Control List was received yet. The minister further said that Jahangir Tareen did not contact him. Matters related to sugar scandal and money laundering are the domain of Shehzad Akbar.
He said that Prime Minister Imran Khan will benefit from differences between PPP and PML-N. He said that he is witnessing it for the first time in his life that opposition parties are issuing show cause notices to each other. Sheikh Rashid reiterated that opposition is not a threat to government of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI). He also rebuffed reports of Maryam Nawaz' departure and said that it is out of question that government will allow her to go abroad.
