ISLAMABAD:  Law Minister Farooq H Naek said that decision regarding the governor’s rule in Balochistan will be taken within 24 hours, Express News reported on Friday.
Speaking to the media from the Parliament House, Farooq H Naek said that Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman will support the government’s decision regarding governor’s rule in Balochistan. The government is in talks with other provincial leaders across the country.
The federal government had imposed governor rule in mid January after a massive terrorist attack in Quetta that killed over 100 people. The most recent attack on the Hazara community in that city claimed the lives of 89 people on Februrary 16.
Shedding light on the caretaker setup that would precede the upcoming national elections, Naek said that the caretaker prime minister will be selected after a consensus.
“Having elections on the same day will be cost-effective”, he said.
Earlier, it was reported that Prime Minister Raja Pervaiz Ashraf had contacted Opposition Leader Chaudhry Nisar of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and asked him to submit names of prospective candidates for the post of caretaker prime minister.
However, no response had been received in writing by the government as yet, Naek noted
