Rasheed demands NSC meeting to elect interim prime minister

FAISALABAD: Former Interior Minister Sheikh Rasheed on Sunday said the PDM government has failed and the National Security Council meeting should be held to elect an interim prime minister, saying that the politics of 11 parties have failed.

Addressing a press conference here on Sunday, he said the National Security Committee (NSC) is the country’s top body on security issues and includes the three services chiefs among its members, besides the prime minister and federal ministers.

Sheikh Rasheed said the country’s situation had become worst and the economy
was being destroyed “because the politics of 11 parties have failed.”

“The interim government should be established by May 31 because they are all
incapable and have failed to deal with anything,” he said.

The former minister claimed that just because of the people in the current
government Imran Khan had become a hero among the people.

Talking about the elections, Rasheed said that a delay in the election would
only benefit Imran Khan but before the elections the meeting of the National
Security Council (sic) should be held to elect an interim prime minister.
