KARACHI, Feb 27: The Pakistan Muslim League (Functional) chief, Pir Pagara, has said that he had made a forecast soon after the formation of Sindh government that the House was not going to last long.

During an informal meeting with a group of newsmen when his comments were sought about the ongoing tussle between Chief Minister Arbab Rahim and his sacked minister Imtiaz Ahmad Shaikh, Pir Pagara said as always it was the government side which emerged strong.

To another question he said before clearing the deck, one had to sweep dirt and litter. When asked about his meeting with Dr Arbab Rahim at the Race Club on Sunday, Pir Pagara said he was the chief minister and you already had exchanged views with him.
