KARACHI: A senior leader of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in Karachi announced his decision to join the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) on Saturday.
Addressing a press conference at Bilawal House Media Cell, PTI leader Zubair Khan and other office bearers of the party joined the Sindh ruling party, expressing confidence in the leadership of Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.
“We welcome Zubair Khan and his supporters in our party,” Senator Saeed Ghani said. “Many more are joining the PPP. This process will continue.”
Reacting on the development, PTI spokesman Fawad Chaudhry said that his party had an important role in Sindh’s politics. “There is need to bring the politics of Karachi and Sindh into national mainstream,” he said.
Chaudhry said that PPP had become a regional party due to its poor governance.In September last year, the lone member of the National Assembly belonging to the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz in Sindh, Hakeem Baloch, resigned from his seat and joined PPP.
