Former provincial minister for health Dr Junaid on Thursday met Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Asif Ali Zardari and announced joining his party. Dr Junaid is also the president of the hockey association.
Disgruntled MQM leaders continued to meet Asif Ali Zardari and leave the party to join PPP on the second day of MQM-Pakistan’s alliance with Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP).
Khushbakht Shujaat and Ali Rashid had met Zardari on Tuesday while Salman Mujahid Baloch and Dr Fauzia had met him yesterday. However, these leaders hadn’t announced joining PPP.
It is pertinent to mention here that another parliamentarian Syed Ali Raza Abidi had also announced leaving MQM-P as soon as the joint press conference of Dr Farooq Sattar and PSP chief Mustafa Kamal had started.
