Naqvi rules out govt early exit, says will complete term

Naqvi said the prime minister will serve the full five-year term and urged a public audit of federal ministries to improve accountability.

  • On Wednesday in Lahore, Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi dismissed speculation about the government's future, asserting that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif will complete his full five-year constitutional tenure.
  • Heightened political speculation followed Naqvi's comments last week, in which he publicly described Pakistan's governance structure as "collapsed" and advocated for creating new administrative provinces.
  • Defending his remarks, Naqvi argued the "80-year-old" system is broken, claiming that if the prime minister had inherited a better model, he could have moved the country forward "100 times faster."
  • Defence Minister Khawaja Asif questioned how Naqvi could criticize the current political system after holding a "very powerful position" within that administration for three and a half years.
  • Naqvi requested an independent audit of all ministries, stating that "the will of the people of Pakistan is supreme" and any administrative reset must follow constitutional methods and legal procedures.
