Gabol, who also quit his party, theMQM, said that he has yet to decide which political party he would be joining.
“I am willing to join a party which is against corruption. Right now, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf speaks against a corrupt system, but it should be clear-headed about its policies. At one end, it is running a government in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa, and at the other end, it is handing in resignations.”
He said Senate elections were rigged in K-P, while in Balochistan, the rate of one vote was Rs30 million. Gabol said it seemed the prime minister was also not interested in the elections.
