Another prominent politician of the Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) joined the rival Pakistan Peoples Party on Thursday. Ghotki-based GDA leader Ali Gohar Khan Mahar met former president and PPP Co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari at the Bilawal House in Karachi and announced his joining the Peoples Party.
Zardari welcomed Mahar on joining the Peoples Party, said a brief statement issued by the Bilawal House on Thursday evening.
