Video: Pervaiz Elahi, federal minister asks Tareen to control ‘Punjab Governor’

Lahore (Staff Report): A new video of a meeting between Pakistan Muslim League-Q (PML-Q) leaders and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) senior leader Jehangir Tareen has revealed any friction between the Punjab Governor and Chief Minister.

The video, which surfaced on Saturday, shows Federal Minister for Housing Tariq Bashir Cheema can be heard speaking to Tareen. "Sir, control Sarwar! He will not let your chief minister continue," he tells Tareen in a candid manner.

Punjab Assembly speaker Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi also endorsed Cheema's demand, saying that Sarwar will not let Chief Minister (CM) Usman Buzdar run the provincial government.

Provincial Minister for Mines and Minerals Hafiz Ammar also present in the meeting.

Responding to a question over the video, Information Minister of Punjab, Fayaz-ul-Hasan Chohan said that the PML-Q was cooperating with PTI government and Usman Buzdar is CM of all of us. “There is no reservation on the name of CM Buzdar and we are not at odds”, he said.
