Lahore: Federal Minister for Railways Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed said that Imran Khan has been regretting the departure of former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif.

While addressing a press conference, the railways minister said that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) want NRO.

“All Parties Conference (APC) of opposition will not be convened even after Muharram. Both parties want NRO but no flexibility will be shown to them,” he said.

The federal minister said that PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz has stoned politics of Shehbaz Sharif.

He further stated that the case against PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif and his son Hamza Shehbaz is also serious.

“Shahbaz Sharif will not give a written statement at any cost. Ishaq Dar was unable to bring Salman Shahbaz back. I wish Nawaz Sharif would come back and face charges against him,” he said claiming that Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) leader Jahangir Tareen would also return to Pakistan.

While talking about Mulana Fazal-ur-Rehman, Sheikh Rasheed said that both PML-N and PPP cannot provide Mulana Fazal-ur-Rehman what he wants.

Railways Minister further stated that the fare of Shalimar Express will be reduced by 10 percent from 25 August.

“ML-1 will prove to be a game changer or this region. Its tender will be issued in the next week,” he added.
