Internal rift? Shahid Khaqan Abbasi refuses to take any ministry

PML-N leader and former prime minister Shahid Khaqan Abbasi who was tipped to get energy and petroleum ministry link, has said that he will not accept any ministry link.

Abbasi said that he would continue to provide his services, but he would not accept energy ministry link. He said if prices of petroleum products were not raised, then the exchequer would be left with nothing to pay for defence, debt repayments and development projects.

On PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif, he said that Nawaz did not possess any official or political office.

“He (Nawaz) went abroad with the permission of court for medical treatment. It is purely up to him to leave his treatment and come back,” he added.
