PESHAWAR:

PPP co-chairperson and former president Asif Ali Zardari on Sunday said the doubts that arose over the holding of the next general elections on their scheduled date had been removed by the decision of the Supreme Court.

“CJP [Chief Justice of Pakistan] Qazi Faez Isa is unwavering in his decisions. Nobody should doubt his decision,” he observed during his meeting with Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa Governor Haji Ghulam Ali in Peshawar.

The former president further said the next general elections would be held at their appointed time and there should be no ambiguity over that.

He was accompanied by PPP K-P President Mohammad Ali Shah Bacha, party leader Ziaullah Afridi, provincial finance secretary Farzand Ali and Peshawar Mayor Zubair Ali.

Zardari asked PPP activists to prepare for the polls, adding that the party would receive the majority of the votes.

The PPP co-chairperson said he had arrived in Peshawar on the K-P governor’s invitation.

Earlier, Haji Ghulam Ali presented a bouquet of flowers to the former president on his arrival at the Governor’s House and hosted a dinner for him.

Zardari will attend the wedding of party leader Ziaullah Afridi's son in Peshawar on Sunday (today) and also meet with party activists in the city.

According to sources, there was a possibility of Zardari meeting with former federal minister Arbab Alamgir and his wife, PPP's former deputy information secretary Asma Alamgir.
