LAHORE: Istehkam-e-Pakistan Party (IPP) Chairman Jahangir Khan Tareen and IPP President Abdul Aleem Khan held meeting with former MPA Makhdoom Syed Iftikharul Hassan Gillani at his residence in Uch Sharif on Monday.

In this meeting Syed Iftikharul Hassan Gillani announced to quit PTI and join the IPP. Jahangir Tareen and Abdul Aleem Khan welcomed Makhdoom Syed Iftikhar-ul-Hasan Gillani on joining IPP. Senior leader IPP Aoun Chaudhry was also present.

Talking to the media on this occasion, Jahangir Tareen said that incident of 9th May was very sad, however, all parties should participate in the general elections. He said that Insha Allah, such an incident will never happen in this country again.

Tareen said that he and Aleem Khan worked hard for PTI but we faced disappointment and dissociated from PTI. He added that he was unfairly disqualified in the Panama case, but now due to the 5-year term, his disqualification along with Nawaz Sharif has also been ended up.

Central President Abdul Aleem Khan said that the general elections should be held on February 8 at the announced time. He indicated that the biggest problem of the country at this time is the issue of economy for which long-term policy should be made. Aleem Khan further said that they will serve the public from the platform of IPP and will give more surprises in the coming days by joining senior leaders of other parties.
