5Federal Interior Minister Mohsin Naqvi has strongly denied rumors about President Asif Ali Zardari’s removal from office. Speaking to media in Sukkur, Naqvi dismissed social media speculation, urging, “Do not pay attention to such news.”
Naqvi highlighted Pakistan’s political unity, stating the country’s political leadership and military establishment are “on the same page” for the first time in history – a development he said troubles certain unnamed elements spreading false narratives.
