It is a shame that they joined PPP. If they would have joined PTI they would have been praised by many and they would have been cleansed like Qureshi and Hashmi.
It seems Sharif and Zardari family will be again in Govt for next five years.
I am not sure we deserve them. But both families are richest family of Pakistan, Therefore they deserve to stay in power on the basis of there influence. As Pak is class driven society.
It was due to happen,as Raja afzal was defeated in by poll elections.His ego lead him to destruction of his political career. But they should know that once again thier defeat is obvious in the upcoming elections,as they had done nothing for the masses of both the constituencies NA-62 and NA-63.
the reason they joined PPP is very simple , they knew they're not gonna be awarded ticket either by PML N or PTI in next election that's why they threw their toes In the worst ever party PPP.
The usual Muk-Muka
Why not PTI ? Why are all the politicians joining that PPP ? Why
At last my city will witness a new PPP era of happiness.
Marks the end of PML-N reign over Jhelum
People please remember these faces. Don't ever vote for people who seek personal benefits. Politics should be always for the benefit of the public...
Shame on all who have made politics an occupation in Pakistan...
Fishermen of politics.

What an absurd decision by them. Perhaps they don't want to win in next elections. For guaranteed loss they should have joined PTI.
Moroosi siyasat. Dynasty politics. Father and 2 sons all Mnas. Yes thats what we need in Pakistan. All of the national assembly being one big happy family. Dr. Qadri, I think you failed at your reforms and revolution. Article 62 63 etc doesn't say anything about dynasty politics. We Will continue to have this corrupt democracy.
We literally need a miracle to get rid of these 2 corrupt parties. May Allah have mercy on Pakistan !!
hahahaha my foot...........im sure both PPP and PMLN can bring "change" given the interchange between their greedy mob of ugly politicians.
