Terming Shah Mahmood Qureshi a ‘political nomad’ who keeps changing political parties, Federal Minister for Information and Broadcasting Dr Firdous Ashiq Awan on Tuesday said the tendering en bloc resignation by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) members of parliament would be like a drone attack on democracy and the democratic process in the country. Talking to the media outside Parliament House, she said the Pakistan Peoples’ Party (PPP) leadership had known Qureshi’s plan but did not expel him from the party to allow him to show his real face. She said, “We gave him time and avoided taking action against him so that PPP workers could see his real face themselves.”
