Cholistan astrologer predicts the fate of Pakistani politicians.
RAHIM YAR KHAN:
A famous astrologer in Cholistan Sufi Abdul Majeed Saleemi recently predicted the ‘future’ of several prominent political leaders in Pakistan.
Saleemi said that the tenure of Yousuf Raza Gilani would soon come to an end ‘by the grace of God’.
“Gilani’s trials have only begun and the people will rise against him by April,” he said, adding that the PM should take care of his personal security because his life was under threat.
Saleemi also said that the fates held turbulent times ahead for President Asif Ali Zardari, especially with regards to his relations with Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif.
“The ‘dosti pretence’ will finally blow up in their faces and Sharif will lead the country,” he said.
Saleemi said that Altaf Hussain, Pir Pagara, Chaudhry Shujaat, Shahbaz Sharif, Amin Fahim, Shah Mehmood Qureshi, Shahabuddin, Imran Khan, Molvi Fazlur Rehman, Aftab Sherpao and Asfanyar Wali would play a joint role in the political sphere this year.
“Army Chief General Ashfaq Kayani will put an end to the terrorist uprisings and will keep the politicians in check,” he said, adding that Pakistan chief justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry and Dr Abdul Qadeer Khan would play a positive role in bringing the country out of crisis. He said several provincial and federal government ministers and lawmakers would be sacked within the month.
“Prices will continue rising and poverty will continue growing,” he said, adding that local philanthropists should start charity centres in this regard.
“I recommend that the politicians who want to stay in office should wear white, black and red,” he said, adding that they should distribute milk, sugar, flour, and tea leaves and Rs100 notes among the poor to curry favour.
“This is what I see in the immediate future but God knows best and he will tell me if anything changes,” Saleemi said.
