KARACHI: Sindh Chief Minister Murad Ali Shah said that political strategy of PTI leadership is so naive and pathetic that despite winning six national assembly seats in by-elections they lost their strength in Parliament.

“Earlier, PTI had 162 seats in National Assembly and now despite winning six seats in by-election they have reduced their strength to 156 seats this shows that their upper chamber is empty.”

Talking to media at `Memorial of Martyrs of October 18, 2007’ at Karsaz, accompanied by Minister Information Sharjeel Memon he said that Imran Khan upper chamber was totally empty and his decisions reflect his political immaturity and naivety.

“Had he fielded his party candidates in bye-election instead of contesting himself he would have added six seats in his numerical strength in national assembly,” he said and added he was not a political material.

He said that Chairman PPP Bilawal Bhutto termed Imran Khan as `selected’ in assembly when he was made Prime Minister and he had thumped desk to make a mockery of term. “Now he has publicly admitted that he was a puppet Prime Minister and his strings were elsewhere,” he said.

“Look at Imran. Khan political wisdom that he has quit Parliament and now plans to throng federal capital to take over government by force,” he lamented.

Murad warned Imran Khan that Pakistan was a democratic country and that change of government was only possible through votes in Parliament.
