Minister for Railways, Khawaja Saad Rafique yesterday dubbed Awami Muslim League’s (AML) Sheikh Rashid as a political joker,
“Rashid is a comedian of Pakistani politics. I don’t take his word seriously”, the ruling Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz minister said in a statement issued here.
Rafique said had Javed Hashmi won Multan by-poll, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf’s captain Imran Khan would have once again accused the government of election rigging.
He said it was a pity that most of the Khan’s close aides had a long history of corruption.
“Khan has surrounded himself with people who are covered in the filth of corruption”, the minister added.
