ISLAMABAD: Speaking to media representatives in Islamabad on Monday, Prime Minister Yousuf Raza Gilani said the government will complete its five-year term.

Those talking about changes in the government will be disappointed, he said.

He said that a petition has been filed in the Supreme Court seeking deferment of the hearing in the NRO implementation case till a review of the beneficiaries' cases was complete.

Gilani further stated that he has “not received any list of NRO beneficiaries as yet”.

On questions regarding the President’s immunity, he said the matter was sub judice.

Responding to another question regarding resignations by certain PPP ministers, Gilani said “jointly we have come and jointly we will go”.
