LAHORE – Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid-e-Azam (PML-Q)’s Unification Bloc leader Tahir Ali Javed told reporters here on Monday that the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) had horse-traded during governor’s rule in Punjab and released an alleged mobile conversation between PPP provincial minister Neelam Jabbar and PML-Q assembly member Arshad Jutt to prove his point.
He said the PPP had tried to lure Unification Bloc members to join ranks with it, offering lucrative incentives including ministry portfolios, but had failed because the group was committed to its leadership. Jutt alleged that Jabbar had asked him for the bloc’s support for the PPP in Punjab during governor’s rule in the province and had even offered to withdraw a fake criminal case registered against his brother.
