KARACHI: The Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA), a major opposition alliance in the Sindh Assembly, on Friday called upon Prime Minister Imran Khan to expose and take action against those legislators who allegedly “sold their conscience” and did not vote for its candidate for a general seat in the Senate elections in the province.
Talking to media on the premises of the Sindh Assembly, GDA parliamentary leader Husnain Mirza, flanked by other party MPAs, expressed resentment and concern over the “betrayal” by the members of allied parties and said: “We voted for all candidates of the joint opposition but in response, our candidate didn’t get votes from six lawmakers.”

KARACHI/ISLAMABAD: Intense last minute manoeuvring and hectic lobbying went into the early hours of Wednesday morning ahead of the critical Senate elections taking place today. Unpleasant events were witnessed on Tuesday, where in Sindh, the provincial assembly descended into chaotic fracas after MPAs belonging to the Pakistan People’s Party and Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) engaged into a scuffle and brawl and the PTI managed to wrestle free one of their MPAs Karim Bux Gabol and drove him away, who had earlier pledged to vote against the party lines. The scuffle left PPP Mukesh Chawla slightly bruised.
In Punjab, adrenaline pumped up when the video of PDM’s Senate candidate Yusuf Raza Gilani’s son Ali Haider Gilani went viral on the social media platforms tutoring MPAs how to cancel their vote.
