Shah Mehmood Qureshi to join Imran Khan’s PTI on 27th
By Fareeha Khalid - Nov 9th, 2011

Multan: Former Foreign Minister and senior leader of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) has decided to join Imran Khan-led Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), sources said on Wednesday.
The sources said that Qureshi would announce his joining on November 27 in Kashmor during a public gathering.
The former minister informally parted his ways with the PPP after Raymond Davis episode in January this year.
Raymond Davis had killed two Pakistani youth in Lahore and the US claimed blanket immunity for him which was categorically refused by Qureshi.

OK fine, Btw insaftak have you noted Faisal Javaid made the same mistake 2 times.
First in the 13th August Isloo dharna, he started a countdown and said 9,8,7,6,5,3,2,1 ! He forgot number 4 and in the Lahore jalsa upon arrival of I.K, he made the same countdown mistake. what the hell?
 
Masood Sharif Khan Khattak Former DG IG will join the Tehreek today. *confirmed*

The Karachities won't like this for his role in karachi operation but then again altaf hussain is busy doing rallies in favor or PPP chairman that launched that operation.

he might be used by PTI to trace secret assets held by Nawaz & Zardari gang given his history with IB and unlawful tapping of phones :facepalm:
 
Awais Leghari (who usually does win from D G khan) has also joined Pakistan-tehreek-e-insaaf.

Is he really clean because he got off due to being an ex-intel guy when charged and what are his thoughts on extrajudicial killings.
 
What's the point of getting people like Shah Mahmood Qureshi, who are living examples of corruption, into a party that is supposedly going to counter corruption?

At least PTI is being realistic now, I guess

Hopefully the media walas ask some tough questions to Immy K & Masood during a press conference.

Some of the decision made recently have been mind boggling.

Shah Mehmood Qureshi is not involved in corruption of a single rupee. Its a disgrace that people cook things up behind the veil of anonymity of the internet

Stop reading Ummat paper.
 
Policy Matters just had an entire program on PTI and its analysis

This jalsa has really given PTI a boost
 
@ waqar

Not just policy matter. Dr. Shahid massood did a whole show on pti on express. That policy matters show was excellent.

It's all upto Imran khan and pti to select the best team. Personally I would like to see more professionals and less professional politicians. The upcoming cec meeting would be very interesting.

This man is a highly corrupt politician. Also a well known lota.


However, Imran Khan knows that more than me, we need these lotas to win. We'll discard them later on. Must be realistic.

He has joined pti for ticket so wonèt be so easy to discard him.
If IK tries to by pass these fair-weather friends, then he would have to face forward block etc.

so itès not simple.

he is not a professional politician and for me his role would be more to do with the investigative side of things which would help unearth the hidden wealth of sharifs zardaris etc

I don't think he is corrupt.

My beef with him is his role in karachi operation (don't know exact details) and unlawful wire tapping. I don't want pakistan to turn into a complete police state this guy could turn pakistan to a police state by violating every law in the book & will violate everyone's privacy.

Imran Khan & PTI need to keep a eye on this guy.
 
In other news Raja Amir Zaman son of Baba Haider Zaman who is leading the suba hazara tehreek has joined PTI in Haripur another big blow to PML(N) in one of their strong areas.

aaj kal ke dunya mein kuch nahi pata chalta


Anyway, Awais Leghari and Shah Mehmood Qureshi = Southern Punjab =WIN! :)
 
Next Jalsa in Karachi, any big guns likely to join then?

By the way, shouldn't PTI have started out in cities like Hyderabad and Sukkur and then moved to Karachi?
 
Shah Mehmood Qureshi seems like a done deal.

yaar instkaf, you have some balls to appear so normal in the face of farcity conducted by PTI recently.

How do Mian Azhar and Masood Sharif Khan Khattak represent change? Kuch khuda ka khauf karo. Imran in the rally says that he wont join hands with the corrupt politicians, AND THEN starts including corrupt politicians and ex killers and murderers in the party. What the hell? Is this really the change we want? How is an intelligent person suppose to defend Imran when his opponents claim he is ISI stooge, when he himself is giving telltale signs on it.

Koi tabdeeli nahi arahi! He is showing that he is part of the status quo, just like all of the others. Ridiculous!

PTI after spending 15 years, realized that this is SHORT-CUT to get PTI presence in Punjab and NWFP.

IK thinks that he would use the lotay as a rubber stamp and get some positive results...but i doubt it.
 
I just read on Dunya News that Imran is going to meet Dr. Abdul Qadeer Khan on Tuesday.

From Dr. Arif Alvi's Facebook page:
"There are many joinings happening all around us. There is a big one coming up Monday or Tuesday. You will like it."

A party that can do such a huge jalsa in Sharif's den, does not need shortcuts.

I admire how you always seem to have the inside info of agencies helping PTI, how you always know what Imran thinks, and how you can predict the future.

I requested my elders to vote for pti when he participated in election first time...

so i have been monitoring pti's journey over the years...and now almost everyone agrees that IK got backing this time...and I am confident that he would a major player in parliament...

Pakistan Agriculture Scientist Association Chairman, Jamshed Cheema, along with his partners will join PTI on Monday.
 
Pakistan Agriculture Scientist Association Chairman, Jamshed Cheema, along with his partners will join PTI on Monday.

LAHORE: Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), after impressing the urban population of central Punjab is on its way to create vote banks in the rural areas of the province. The party has designed new strategies to strengthen its Kisan wing and to bring an agricultural revolution in the country.

Chairman Auriga Group Jamshed Iqbal Cheema on Monday joined PTI and chalked out a brief plan regarding ways to improve farmers’ lives.

Cheema, a well known name in the field of agriculture, has represented Pakistan on countless international forums.

PTI’s Lahore Region President Mian Mehmood at a press conference introduced Cheema as a “promising young person”. Mehmood also said that the PTI’s Kisan wing is working for the betterment of the farmers and is introducing many new reforms.

Mehmood said that Cheema, with his vision and expertise, will draw strategies favourable to farmers, which will later become a part of the party’s manifesto.

Cheema while addressing the press conference said that he has joined the PTI because the two ruling parties have gripped the entire nation over petty issues, ignoring the real matters.

Cheema said that the state of Pakistan’s agriculture saddens him. He mentioned that around 44 percent of the population sleep hungry every night.

“Issues in Pakistan are not addressed but just rather managed,” said Cheema.

Answering to a question about measures that can help improve the agriculture sector of the country, Cheema said that the government should reduce the prices of seeds and fertilisers, initiate agricultural research, increase storage capacity and enhance women’s role in the field.

Cheema said that the PTI will implement all these measures. He said that the PTI will also focus on subsidies and that it will only promote targeted subsidies.

“Targeted subsidies would bring revolution in the life of a common man,” said Cheema.

Cheema also asked people to cast their vote for PTI and to ignore their fears of whether the party will win or not. He said such fears work as obstacles in bringing change.

another good pick up by PTI.

Just been watching Off the record with Kashif Abbasi, really sad to see how low and dirty games of politics these ppl are playing, Hanif Abbasi and Faisal Raza Abedi from ppp teaming up and making bogus allegations against imran khan over his source of income and betting. Worst of all was the accusation that imran was using funds from Shaukat khanum hospital for personal benefits and his political party.

Used to think Hanif Abbasi was a decent person in pml-n but he really exposed himself tonight, these guys are really dirty politicians.

Really felt sorry for the PTI person on the programme, he was a Doctor and obviously Would be more at ease in an intellectual debate, not this kind of dirty and gutter politics where these guys are experts at allegations and Mud slinging,

^ Yes and that PTI guy didn't get much chance to clarify the things. The other two guys are like dog non-stop barking. However PTI should really take note of these questions in almost every program and all the spokeperson should do homework before coming on air. I feel most of them ar enot well spoken and can't easily defend against accusation. This could create doubts in viewers.

24 former PML-Q parliamentarians, nazims join PTI
LAHORE: At least two dozen former Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) MPAs, MNAs and nazims announced they were joining the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday.

PTI chairman Imran Khan welcomed the former PML-Q parliamentarians’ and party workers’ decision. Khan said anyone could join his party, but party tickets would only be given to those who sincerely declare their assets, Express 24/7 reported.

Khan also said that the establishment cannot control the PTI as it is driven by “a vision” and that his party is not an heirloom that his children would inherit.

The PTI chairman criticised the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) and the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and accused them of engaging in dynastic politics of give and take.

As reported earlier, the PTI Sindh leadership said that the former foreign minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi will join Khan’s party soon. Qureshi is expected to make an official announcement during a rally being held in Kashmore on November 27.

Khar likely to enter into another political marriage

By Hussain Kashif

LAHORE: Founding member of the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), close ally of Zulfiqar Ali Bhutto and former Punjab governor Ghulam Mustafa Khar is likely to go into another political marriage as people close to him have revealed to Daily Times that Khar was considering joining the newly emerging Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf within a couple of days.

According to sources related to the seasoned politician, a special one on one meeting between Ghulam Mustafa Khar and PTI Chairman Imran Khan had already been held some days before and both leaders had decided to walk together.

Sources said that it had been decided that Ghulam Mustafa Khar would announce his decision to join the party in the presence of Imran Khan in a public meeting along with his family members, who are also playing an active role in politics at different levels.

The public meeting would most probably be held in some area of southern Punjab, like Muzaffargarh or Multan.

PTI sources, while confirming the meeting between both leaders, said that Imran Khan was going to hold a public meeting in Shujabad (near the Multan district) on November 26 and that there was a possibility that Khar, along with others, would announce his decision to join the party. Seasoned politician Ghulam Mustafa Khar has already changed his affiliation with different political parties several times. Recently, he was an ally of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) chief Nawaz Sharif.

Born in 1937 in Muzaffargarh, Khar was jailed during General Ziaul Haq’s martial law. Later, he slipped out of the country after an understanding with General Chishti (a Ziaul Haq aide).

Returning to Pakistan before 1988, Khar had by then fallen out with Benazir Bhutto and, with the backing of the army, created the National Peoples Party (NPP) along with Ghulam Mustafa Jatoi and other PPP dissidents. After some time, he rejoined the PPP before the 1993 elections and after being re-elected, served as federal minister for water and power under Prime Minister Benazir Bhutto. Defeated in the 1997 election, he was unable to contest the 2002 elections because of a restriction placed on non-graduates, preventing them from contesting in elections.

In 2007, Khar was removed from the PPP by Benazir Bhutto due to his controversial statements regarding the deal between Benazir and General Musharraf. He also had a war of words with PPP Secretary General Jehangir Badar, who called him a political orphan.

Ghulam Mustafa Khar is one of the well-known landlords of the country and has been married numerous times. His seventh marriage was with Tehmina Durrani, who later wrote a book titled ‘My Feudal Lord’ on her husband after obtaining a divorce, in which she describes the alleged abuse meted out to her by Khar. Tehmina Durrani later married current Punjab Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif.

Close associates of Ghulam Mustafa Khar have accused him of always remaining in search of new horizons, whether the horizon involves a life partner or a political party.

As far as I know, khar was never financially corrupt.

I dont like the idea of him joining PTI since these age old politicians should be kept at a distance, but if he joins, I dont think PTI can be accused of having a corrupt politician onboard
 
I don't think PTI will be giving him a ticket either it's just that I hate Khar and all big name old politicians.
 
I agree, I dont want to see such people in PTI either. But I just wanted to say this before we hear the same old "PTI taking corrupt politicians in" line
 
Athletes, Singers, Actors and now finally a designer :D

[utube]oX2_Vt1blME[/utube]

The thread should really be who isn't joining PTI now :)) Everyone is jumping on the bandwagon.
 
Allah nay meri dua'in sun li aur this crackpot is thinking about leaving.

Up next should be Hamid Gul.

ISLAMABAD: While new faces are joining the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) in a large numbers, its former secretary information Shireen Mazari is giving serious thoughts to quitting Imran Khan’s party sensing that he has softened his stance against the US and India after the successful October 30 Lahore rally, it is learnt.

Credible sources told The News that another major reason for Shireen’s change of mind was Khan’s extremely relaxed policy of accepting new faces without considering their past. The sources said though the PTI workers were neglecting media criticism in this regard, but after the joining of Zafar Iqbal Warriach, former minister of state for interior during Musharraf’s dictatorial regime, a sense has prevailed that the party is changing into a team of Musharraf’s cronies. PTI sources said Zafar Warriach was in-charge of the slamabad administration during the incidents of Lal Masjid and dragging of the chief justice in March 2007. The sources said Shireen Mazari might quit the party if it continued for some more days as her major ideology that there must be nationalistic change in Pakistan’s foreign policy is being ignored by the party chief and she is pushed to believe that Imran wants power like other politicians by pleasing the Uncle Sam.

“Shireen also believes that after joining of Shah Mehmood Qureshi, the PTI will also be changed into a status quo party like others,” they added.

The sources said Shireen strongly believed that after Lahore’s show, Imran Khan had changed his strong and consistent stance against expansionist and imperialistic designs of America and against the cruelties of India. “Shireen also believes that softening of Imran’s stance regarding the US is on the ‘instruction’ of the establishment,” the sources added.
