LAHORE: Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) member Uzma Bukhari has resigned from the Punjab Assembly and the party, Express News reported on Friday.
She has resigned because of differences with the party.
While speaking to Express News, Bukhari said the “current PPP is not the one she joined under the leadership of Benazir Bhutto.”
“I had expressed my concerns but to no avail,” she said.
Bukhari said the party failed to provide relief to the common man.
Earlier in December 2012, three PPP MPAs submitted their resignations in the assembly secretariat and announced their decision to join Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N).

you are right. they will sweep government revenues into their personal bank accounts. @DevilHunterX:
Everyone knows that PML (N) will sweep up after the elections.
Grapes are increasingly becoming sour for Pasha Tehreek-e-Intiqam (PTI). Every Pakistani realises that PML-N will clean sweep the forthcoming elections inshaAllah!
"While speaking to Express News, Bukhari said the “current PPP is not the one she joined under the leadership of Benazir Bhutto.” She should have left PPP after the assasination of late Benazir Bhutto.
"Lotas realized that “current PPP is not the one she joined under the leadership of Benazir Bhutto.” after five years.Do not they have any shame?
@Adnan Siddiqi: That might or might not happen, but at least one thing is sure, PMLN will accept all such people with open arms. What a party of change!
what a politics !!! right when its already going to dissolve for the new election...
this is a tactics used by all politicians to get better rates for their souls !
@Adnan Siddiqi: PTI is not in any govt to offer her incentives (development funds). even they donot have contested elections yet so there future is unsure as graph has gone down. When the ship is sinking, its the rats who jump first. I do not understand why MNA and MPAs are given discretiony funds? are these auditable? why do they have to get involved in building nalis, repair road? may be ordinary people think that are good for this work only.
very early move...
And if she ends up joining the greatest "Justice Movement" since the struggle of Nelson Mandela, she would be hailed as the champion of clean and scrupulous politics and a mighty honest politician :D
Opportunists to the CORE!
and she quietly joined N league after a few days. What a fairytale.
I think she will now join PML(N), get a ticket and come back again as an MPA Go girl go.....
Mashallah, after looting about 5 years she realized that she has differences with her party. Great !!
Good decision.......
yeah..exactly...just before elections
so she knows NOW that ppp has no chance to win the election
A season conscience awakening has begun!
A classic example when at the term of office she awoke to reality grapes are sour now. these class of politicians are only their to make money and we as citzens must avoid them.
AND this she realized after almost 5 years of Government! #Strange
