Dar said in an interview with a Pakistani news channel that it was “premature” to comment on it and added that he did not believe in pursuing or desiring any position.
He further stated that whoever would be chosen for the position of interim prime minister would have his full support as a senator.
Earlier, there were reports that the Minister of Finance was considered the interim prime minister.
Sources told ARY News that the PML-N became active in persuading the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) – the coalition partner at the center – in the name of Ishaq Dar for the position.
Sources claimed that the name of the Finance Minister came under discussion during a meeting between the PML-N chairman – Nawaz Nawaz Sharif and the co-chairman of the Pakistan People’s Party, Asif Ali Zardari.
Meanwhile, during the interview, Isaac Dar confirmed that the 2017 Elections Law is set to be amended in order to enable the incoming caretaker government to make important decisions rather than simply managing day-to-day operations until a democratically elected government takes power, Dawn reported.
Article 230 of the Elections Law relates to the functions of the caretaker government.
He replied, “As far as I know, yes.”
“I don’t think this is something we hide from the nation. They are going to find out and it should (in fact) be amended,” Dar said, adding that the nation’s time should not be wasted by the provisional government bogging down only on “everyday” tasks.
He said it would be “inappropriate” for a caretaker prime minister minister To only be concerned with routine tasks, according to Dawn.
Notably, the term of membership of the National Assembly will expire on August 12, and meetings are taking place between members of the government on the details of the temporary composition, according to ARY News. Favorite
