Awami Muslim League president and former interior minister Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed has stated that 240 million people were standing like a rock with the apex court judges. While talking to media persons on Thursday in front of Islamabad High Court he viewed that PDM is willing e to bring a reference against three judges but they must understand that entire nation is standing behind the Supreme Court of Pakistan.

He said it was only Maryam Nawaz’s wish to move a reference against honourable justices. They are planning to table a resolution against judges in the parliament, he said and added that many such resolutions have been passed in the past. Regarding elections in the Punjab, the former minister taunted the ruling alliance that they were not eligible to go the masses.

a“The nation is preparing for elections, they are trying to evade the vote. Out of 13 parties [in the PDM], candidates of only three parties have submitted their nomination papers,” Rashid added. He ridiculed the government saying that they have no opinion of theirs as "vote [masses] is not with them." He criticized the government for adding to their miseries and said people were dying in an attempt to get a bag of flour.
