“I am so very impressed that executive positions are being filled so appropriately, Salman Butt a convicted…”
“Hey convictions can be overturned. Your next prime minister may well be someone whose conviction is overturned. And my advice: back off from criticizing the caretakers, I mean they are for a very short time…”
“Short term defined as what? Eleven months?”
“You are spreading despondency. I mean here you are thinking that 11 months of the Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa caretaker-ship is too long while a mere three months plus two to three weeks of a Caretaker economy minister is enough to turn the pervasive economic impasse around!”
“It’s what is claimed by the incumbents. The Punjab caretaker chief minister has always maintained that he is there till elections are held. Azam Khan, the caretaker

“When? When will it come into effect?”
“Hey I am not a pir to forecast…”
“Speaking of pirs did you hear the alleged tape of The Third Wife and the Lawyer.”
“Yes but its alleged, it requires forensic analysis and as you and I know that didn’t happen during the tenure of the Man Who Must Remain Nameless, the eleven party sixteen-month long coalition government, and…”
“Right but that’s not what I want to focus on, what caught my attention is the allegation made by the Lawyer backed by the Third Wife that The
Man Who Must
Remain Nameless was being poisoned in
jail, a charge that The Sisters challenged….” “Right and as a big critic of The Third Wife you reckon food from home may have some mumbo jumbo…”
