#PPP leaders’ joint press conference in Islamabad

Information Secretary Pakistan Peoples Party Parliamentarians, Shazia Atta Marri MNA, Secretary Information PPP, Faisal Karim Kundi and Abdul Qadir Patel MNA addressing a joint press conference have said that opposition Senators are receiving threatening telephone calls and the government has lost all ethics to succeed in the Senate chairman and deputy chairman elections. They said that the vote of confidence by the prime minister was illegal and unconstitutional. Prime Minister was the only one in that race and he came first.

PPP leaders said that PDM has already won in the election and the numbers and ethics both are with the PDM candidates. The prime minister must not involve institutions in politics. The government is perplexed in this election like it was in the Senate elections on 3 March. They said that elections are won by law and constitution and not by tactics. PPP has taken serious note of the statement of information minister Shibli Faraz. They said that attempts will be carried out to harm our members. The government is frightened of Syed Yousuf Raza Gillani because he was a popular prime minister.

They said that the PPP has full confidence on its allies and all of them will vote for PDM candidates. They also hoped that the independent and Jamaat-e-Islami will vote for PDM candidates.

They said that the government is going to impose new taxes on the poor people of Pakistan who are already facing record price-hike in commodities and increase in utility bills. The PDM will liberate the people of Pakistan from the tyranny of the PTI.
