This is a pretty neat story that I haven't seen anybody else pick up. Perv's PML seems to have made some solid gains at the expense of the turbans, which is why they're hollering about vote fixing. | LAHORE: Former Kamoki tehsil nazim Zakaullah Baryar and Pakistan People's Party (PPP) Kamoki President Bashir Bhopal visited Chief Minister Chaudhry Pervaiz Elahi at Chief Minister's House on Monday. The chief minister announced their decision to join the Pakistan Muslim League (PML). Transport Minister Rana Shamshad Ahmad Khan was also present, said an official statement. The chief minister said the success of PML-backed candidates in the first phase of local council elections showed that people wanted continuity of the reforms and development programmes of the government.
