KARACHI: Another Member of Sindh Assembly belonging to the Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) on Thursday joined the Pak-Sarzameen Party (PSP).
According to Geo TV, Shiraz Waheed was elected from Korangi’s PS-123 constituency.
PSP leader Mustafa Kamal welcomed the lawmaker in his party at a press conference.
During the media talk, the former Karachi mayor harshly criticized the Sindh government over bad governance.

The lawmakers include Asif Hasnain, Salman Baloch, Erum Azim Farooqi, Sheikh Abdullah, Khalid bin Wilayat, Irtaza Khalil, Nadeem Razi, Abdul Razaq, Arif Maseeh and Bilqees Mukhtiar.
