Alliance only with corruption-free parties, says Iftikhar Chaudhry

HYDERABAD: The former chief justice and leader of Justice and Democratic Party Muhammad Iftikhar Chaudhry met the nationalist leaders in Hyderabad and Jamshoro districts on Sunday. In Hyderabad, he separately called upon Sindh Taraqi Pasand Party’s Chairman Dr Qadir Magsi and Qaumi Awami Tehreek’s president Ayaz Latif Palijo. 

In the meetings, Chaudhry exchanged views on the prevailing political situation in the country. He said his party would consider forming an electoral alliance with only those political parties which were clean of corruption.

QAT’s Palijio praised  Iftikhar Chaudhry for his role in judiciary.  He stressed that the political parties should provide an alternate leadership in Sindh against the PPP, which had been ruling the province since 2008. 

Earlier, Chaudhry met with Sindh United Party’s president Syed Jalal Mehmood Shah in Jamshoro and exchanged views on the political situation. Chaudhry said Sindh’s nationalist leaders were part of the national mainstream politics and would remain so.
