The upcoming elections in Mauritius have ignited a debate about the potential composition of the government if the Parti Travailliste-Mouvement Militant Mauricien-Nouveaux Démocrates (PTr-MMM-ND) alliance wins. Specifically, the question of who will occupy the number three position within the government has sparked intense speculation. Shakeel Mohamed, a prominent figure in the alliance, has openly declared his aspirations for the role, highlighting the importance of religious representation in Mauritian politics. However, whispers of tension between Mohamed and other leaders have surfaced, with some suggesting that his ambition benefits other Muslim politicians within the alliance. Meanwhile, Dr. Farhad Aumeer, another potential candidate for the position, has downplayed the controversy, emphasizing the importance of fair representation for all segments of the Mauritian population. He has stressed that the ultimate decision rests with the Prime Minister, Navin Ramgoolam, if the PTr-MMM-ND alliance emerges victorious. With the elections fast approaching, Aumeer advocates for shifting the focus away from internal debates and towards presenting a compelling program that addresses crucial issues such as corruption, nepotism, the rising cost of living, and drug-related problems.
