Renowned spiritual scholar Sarfaraz Shah predicted on Tuesday India might face difficulties that Pakistan was overcoming.

During the programme "Nadeem Malik Live" on Samaa TV, Sarfaraz Shah made predictions about Pakistan's political and economic future for the year 2025. Imran Khan has remained the most popular leader and might be released from prison soon."

"Imran Khan would have to wait nearly four years before forming a government," he maintained.

He added Khan's familiarity with the British gave him an advantage.

Shah predicted a positive future for former First Lady Bushra Bibi, saying, "A wife always influenced her husband, which is quite natural."

Commenting on Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari, Shah said: "The PPP chairman needed time to mature, and his journey to becoming prime minister would take longer."

Regarding Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz, he stated she was experiencing good times in her life and might progress further, but she did not appear likely to become prime minister in the future.

Discussing former prime minister Nawaz Sharif, he asserted: "Nawaz Sharif's active political career had ended, and he might not prefer returning to power."

Sarfaraz Shah predicted: "Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif's tenure might continue for a short period, with the hybrid governance system sustaining temporarily but not for long."

He mentioned that Pakistan's situation had begun improving over the past one or two months and predicted the country would witness rapid development within two to two-and-a-half years.

He added those who harmed Pakistan had faced consequences, and India would now face difficulties similar to those Pakistan had recently overcome.

"I hope the Higher Power would bless Pakistan abundantly," he maintained.
