The steady pressure by PTI on the Sindh government has forced some changes, although cosmetic, in the cabinet.
The Sindh government has decided to make some major shuffles in the provincial cabinet and new faces will become part of the government.
Sources said three ministers and an adviser including Nisar Khuhro and Sohail Anwar Siyal will be removed.
Arbab Lutfullah, who is the nephew of Arbab Ghulam Rahim, is also likely to get a portfolio, sources told News360.
It could be assumed as a counter move as Prime Minister Imran Khan had appointed Arbab Ghulam Rahim as his special assistant on Sindh affairs last week.
