He asserted that the pressure of blackmailing will never force him to bow down.

Rashid had earlier claimed that the premier had asked him to join the information ministry.

Referring to Fawad Chaudhry who is currently on London tour, Rashid asserted, “He has been enjoying picnic in London for eight days. I have asked him to return.”

After the news aired on media, Rashid clarified his stance saying that Fawad Chaudhry is like his brother and he can never think of taking his position. He maintained that the picnic statement was said on a lighter note.

On the other hand, Special Assistant to the Prime Minister on Media Iftikhar Durrani said that Rashid and Chaudhry both are on good terms and the premier is satisfied with their performances.

“The result of their performance will be coming this Monday,” he told.

Special assistant to the PM Naeemul Haq declared that Fawad Chaudhry will remain Information Minister. “The performance of any minister cannot be decided in three months,” he said.
