Prime Minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and Opposition leader Khurshid Shah on Friday finally arrived at a consensus pertaining to the name of caretaker prime minister. Talking to the media, Shah refused to reveal the name and said the announcement will be made on May 15. "The name of caretaker PM is secure in my heart. I will not tell it to media no matter how many time they ask," asserted Shah.
In a previous meeting between PM Abbasi and Shah, names of former finance minister Dr Hafeez Pasha, former chief justice Tassaduq Hussain Jillani and former governors of State Bank Dr Shamshad and Ishrat Hussain were taken under consideration.
Earlier, Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) finalized three names for caretaker prime minister. Sources say the names were finalized after PTI chief's consultation with senior leaders.
The names include Abdur Razzaq Daud, Tasadduq Jilani and Dr Ishrat Hussain to opposition leader Khurshid Shah. Daud has remained Trade Minister in the cabinet of former president Pervez Musharraf from 1999-2002. Tasadduq Jilani has served as chief justice of Pakistan from 2013-2014 while Hussain has remained governor State Bank from 1999-2006.
