Expressing distrust over all four provincial governors, the opposition leader in the National Assembly demanded their removal prior to the forthcoming general elections. Talking to reporters in Raiwind on Thursday, Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan said that the PML-N doesn’t trust the governors of all provinces appointed on ‘political basis’, adding that all of them should resign before the elections. He said that the governors of Sindh, Balochistan and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa belonged to MQM, PML-Q and PPP respectively while the Punjab governor was of ‘all political parties’. He said further that the sons of Punjab Governor Makhdoom Ahmed Mahmood had joined the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the governor could be of help to them in next elections. The opposition leader said that electoral process should be concluded in 60 days. To a question about caretaker prime minister, Nisar said that three to four names had been shortlisted for the slot.
