Syed has stated that he does not believe in “exhibitory meetings.”
The ANP spokesperson told Express News that Shahi Syed had been called to the Governor House to meet Ashraf, adding that the ANP is a coalition partner of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and they should meet like partners.
Ashraf is also expected to meet Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) leaders at the party’s headquarters, Nine Zero, today.
Both ANP and MQM are coalition partners of PPP in the Sindh and federal governments.
Shahi Syed had earlier demanded that the PPP should treat ANP like they treat MQM.
“We have supported PPP unconditionally and we will do so in the future but they should think that if they can visit Nine Zero day and night, they should also visit Mardan House, which is a centre of Karachi’s Pashtuns,” Syed had said.

Double standards. First they voted him in, now showing principles off. Shame ,,,
What is ANP?
Joker alert again, this joker doesn't want to meet the other joker Rental Joe because the ANP is not getting enough kickbacks from the PPP theives.
ANP is no less important than MQM to ppp or other parties. Those who are rejoicing this visit of PM to nine zero and no visit to mardan house would soon start biting ur nails as the PM would definitely visit Wali-bagh, if not mardan house. Zardari knows how to honour friendships, alliances and committments.
@Baba
your comment on this page suggest, you do care.
Bilawal hse, 70 Clifton, Pagara House, Nine Zero are all the respective Party Head Quarters. Mardan House is not ANP's HQ. ANP HQ is in KPK not in Karachi. This is just a local branch office not the Head Office that's why Shahi Sahab. By the way, go with your Party Agenda not personal or you will be left alone Sir!
Dear Shai, find some body who does care
Hahah, THE pm Should visit Mardan House, do you really think they give ANP that importance that you are seeking for.
bye-bye RENTAL Minister.
Many including perhapes shahi syed are still in shock ... Raja Rental and PM???
What a hipocracy!!
Stand your ground Shahi Syed. Dont let them take you for granted.
Pagara House then 90, then 70 clifton and now Mardan House... I think if all these houses will remove from the map of Karachi then we will have Stable Karachi.
Some stupids are thinking that he is not meeting new Prime Minister because of some Ideology and moral Uprightness and for their kind information all ANP member unanimously supported Raja Pervaiz in the Parliament and now they are whining to get the due share in Corruption and some good ministries as after the Destruction of Railways they want some other sectors to be like Railways. It is a fight of sharing of resources of corruption together and nothing else.
Does not believe in “exhibitory meetings". He believes in only "retaliatory adventures".
@maryam Respect is given to those who deserve it. IMHO, The ANP guys don't deserve any
Shahi sahab should have put this condition before voting for PPP in NA.
@Mazi: He can meet him but not in 90 or in Governor House. The PM should visit Mardan house as he is visiting 90. Good decision by Shahi Syed.
Shahi has given appropriate treatment to our Crime Minister but they are still partners.
He can't meet him but his party can vote for him in NA. What a Political Shame!!
