As seen from the video above when Imran Khan came to the National Assembly for a vote of confidence, he shook hands with Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui but went ahead without shaking hands with Federal Interior Minister Sheikh Rashid.
However, from the video circulating it is not clear whether the premier saw Sheikh Rashid or not.
It should be noted that Prime Minister Imran Khan managed to get a vote of confidence from the Parliament, which was announced by Speaker Asad Qaiser.
