KARACHI, Pakistan — Politicians from the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM), Raza Haroon and Anees Advocate, joined the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) on Friday.
The announcement came after the two met with former president and party co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari in Karachi.
Haroon, who was also a provincial minister, had previously joined former Karachi mayor Mustafa Kamal’s Pak Sarzameen Party (PSP) in 2016, but has since left that party as well. Anees, on the other hand, was a MQM dissident who joined PSP in 2016.
On this occasion, the PPP stated that Zardari welcomed both new recruits, who were previously members of the MQM’s Rabita Committee, to the party.
Former President Asif Ali Zardari stated that the PPP’s Karachi Charter will have far-reaching consequences for Pakistan’s future.
He went on to say that the PPP was the party of Karachians.
“We are working to restore the lights which were taken away by the rivals of peace and the merchants of hate,” the message went on to say.
