Lahore: The parliamentary committee of Pakistan Peoples Party Punjab
has recommended for ceasing the basic membership of former Foreign
Minister Makhdoom Shah Mehmood Qureshi from the party.
The
urgently called party meeting was held at Lahore on Thursday under the
chairmanship of PPP leader Zulfiqar Gondal, which burst out at Shah
Mehmood Qureshi over the meeting with PML (N) leader Mian Nawaz Sharif
in connection with opposition’s grand alliance against the government.
“Senior
member of PPP, Shah Mehmood Qureshi met Nawaz Sharif without any prior
approval of the party leadership, so the parliamentary committee of PPP
demands Co-Chairperson of the party President Asif Ali Zardari to take
action against him and his membership of PPP might be terminated at
once as he previously had also violated the party discipline several
times ”, the meeting added.
Some members of the parliamentary
committee declared Shah Mehmood Qureshi “ spiritual son of General
Zia-ul-Haq” by saying that, as true worker of PPP could not forget
Bhutto, similarly, the soul of General Zia-ul-Haq could not be get away
from the elements like Shah Mehmood Qureshi.
The provincial
parliamentary committee of PPP also showed resentment over Quershi’s
appalling behaviour with the party workers within party meetings in the
past and said that Peoples Party has deep roots in the masses and there
is no room for such a proud man in the rank and file of the party. Online
