Another heavyweight of Punjab’s political arena, former governor Ghulam Mustafa Khar, is going to join Imran Khan’s squad against mighty rivals like the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N). Sources in the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) on Thursday confided to Pakistan Today that several meetings were held between Khar and the PTI chief, and the former governor would very likely make a formal announcement in a public meeting on November 26.
They added that the two leaders had agreed to announce Khar’s PTI membership in a big show, either in Shujaabad, Multan or Muzaffargarh (Khar’s native town). Sources further said that Khar’s entry into the PTI would fortify Khan’s political stature in southern Punjab, as Khar had a strong lobby in the region.
