KARACHI: The telephonic contacts between President Asif Ali Zardari
and Chaudhry Shujat Hussain turned out to be fruitful as Pakistan People
Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League Quaid (PML-Q) have agreed over
distribution of ministries in Sindh.
According to sources, PML-Q
ministers and advisers have been agreed to return their portfolios to
Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM). Earlier, PPP and PML-Q had a conflict
over distribution of portfolios to MQM ministers.
The PML-Q
ministers and advisors of the province will withdraw from their
positions and they will be given new positions. Halim Aadil Sheikh will
be given Transport ministry, Aijaz Shirazi Forest Department and
Shehryar Mahar Board of Investment.
