RAWALPINDI: Chief Awami Muslim League Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed said that Pakistan Peoples' Party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari cannot become Prime Minister of any country.

 In sarcastic remark on social media website twitter, former Minister wrote that there's no tax on dreaming. Bilawal undertook 65 foreign trips but got nothing, he added.

 Rasheed predicted that dreams of PML-N, PPP and Maulana Fazlur Rehman would be shattered. Government has burdened poor with inflation. Base rate of electricity has been increased from Rs 25 to Rs 29 a unit. Laptops won't make difference. Those who are paying electricity bills and buying flour, would give 440-volt shock to rulers in coming elections, he continued.

 He said gulf between masses and ruling 13 parties has widened. Poverty-stricken people have been committing suicide, but their families say cause of death is heart attack because they don't want post mortem examinations and police investigations.

 Rasheed said people like Fazlur Rehman have left behind after emigration of 800,000 professionals, doctors and engineers. Head of Awami Muslim League said that two-third majority is required to make Nawaz Sharif eligible to contest election again, which is not possible even after coming general elections.

Nawaz Sharif is not crazy that he will come back to Pakistan. From Saudi Arabia, he will go to London. He went to Saudi Arabia by tendering written apology and to London on surety bond. Allah knows when and in what condition he will return to Pakistan, he stated.

In Ayub era, people came out in protest against raise in price of sugar and now they will come out against high prices of flour and electricity, he remarked. In possible reference to PML-N leaders, he said they become ill if they are ousted from power and when get back into power they oblige their favourites with official advertisements.

Rasheed said state is not something from outer space, its main component is people, who have been rendered bankrupt. He said people don't have money to bury their dead and demanded that they should be paid from Benazir Income Support programme to meet expenses for burial.

Last overs of game of politics are about to begin. Those who have cheated masses will face music, he concluded.
