A great move by the two coalition parties. No other party from Sindh should win even a single seat who is supported by the TTP. It is proven time and again that the TTP does not discriminate when killing ANP, MQM or PPP workers so the best solution is to unite together and face TTP and their supporters. Hopefully some more seat adjustments would happen soon in other provinces as well.
An eye opener for MQM.
Yawnnnnnnnnn!
Insha'Allah the PPP & ANP coalition will win the majority in Karachi and Sindh as these two parties as well as the MQM are the only ones with the guts to stand up to the Taliban and save our country from destruction in the future.
