Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif is considering a reshuffle of the federal cabinet over dissatisfaction with the performance of some ministers, with those failing to achieve assigned targets potentially losing their positions.

According to an ARY News report, the prime minister has sought performance reports of federal ministers from various government departments and institutions to evaluate their progress against previously assigned targets.

He has also held consultations on possible cabinet changes after reviewing the reports, according to government sources cited in the report.

Ministers May Lose Positions Over Performance

Shehbaz Sharif had previously assigned specific targets to members of the federal cabinet. Ministers who failed to meet those targets within the given deadlines could face removal as part of the proposed reshuffle.

The prime minister has also reportedly taken Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif into confidence regarding the possible changes.

New Faces May Join Federal Cabinet

The prime minister is also considering bringing new members into the federal cabinet. Ministers of State who have delivered strong results could be promoted to federal minister positions.

Meanwhile, some federal ministers have reportedly approached Shehbaz Sharif and requested permission to resign. The prime minister is expected to decide on these requests during the cabinet restructuring process.

Despite the expected changes, the allocation of cabinet positions among coalition partners is likely to remain unchanged.
