Cabinet reshuffle: Asad Umar likely to take charge as federal minister again

[Introvert]

Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf senior leader Asad Umar will likely return as a federal minister amid major reshuffle in the federal Cabinet, sources informed on Monday.

According to sources, Prime Minister Imran Khan has taken the decision regarding a major reshuffle in the cabinet, with former finance minister Umar taking charge of the petroleum ministry this time.

Sources said that Science and Technology Minister Fawad Chaudhry will have to relinquish hold of his portfolio once again.

Around eight to 10 ministers are expected to be a part of reshuffle, with Shafqat Mahmood likely to be given the charge of the Interior Ministry.

Sources further said that Zubaida Jalal will likely become the education minister, with Firdous Ashiq Awan also among those who will be a part of the reshuffle.

Dr Babar Awan is also expected to become an adviser, sources said, adding that the former law minister is more interested towards being a senator.

In the meeting of PTI parliamentary leaders today, some lawmakers complained to the prime minister about the behaviour of some ministers, following which the premier hinted at the cabinet change.

Sources earlier informed that Prime Minister Imran Khan has decided to carry out major changes in the Punjab provincial administration with reshuffling expected in the provincial cabinet.

Sources told that a decision in this regard has been taken to remove and replace some ministers within the cabinet.

Asad umaer should vice PM. Interior minister should be changed but shafqat mehmood is not a good choice. Very good to get rid of science minister. Higher education also needs some attention along with defense ministry.

He is being promoted to minister for space and beyond tech

 

[Imad.Khan]

Interior Minister is currently Ijaz Shah, who used to be DG-IB and previously was in ISI. I personally think he has good credentials to be Interior Minister.

Shafqat Mehmood should get science and technology. As for Fawad Chudary, really see no place for him in the cabinet.

 

[TeesraIndiotHunter]

Fawad Chaudhary has no place in the cabinet. Asad Umar definitely needs to come back in the cabinet.

I don't know what's happening with education ministry?

Ministries performing as expected of PTI (more or less)

1- Water and power ministry
2- Finance ministry (re-structuring and taxation measures etc have shown some progress)
3- Environmental ministry (Amin Aslam doing a great job).
4- Interior ministry (Terrorism is record down, Mashallah!)

Neutral performance: Neither good nor bad (Need improvement)
1- Information ministry
2- Institutional reform ministry
3- Religious affairs ministry
4- Education ministry

Ijaz Shah does have good credentials but according to Dr Shahid he is sick and has been for some time. He has some heart issues and was in the hospital as well some time ago.

So my guess is that his health issues are preventing him from doing his job properly and that may be a reason behind PMIK thinking about changing him.

Yes. A new federal ministry of Outer Space shall be created; he should be made minister thereof and also be sent there in the space.

Musical chairs of hypocrisy and mediocracy continues unabated.

This is just dictatorial
