LAHORE: PML-Qs newly elected member of National Assembly, Owais Leghari and a delegation of Hazara Division in separate meetings with Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and Pervez Elahi on Saturday demanded that PML-Qs joining the PPP-led government be linked with formation of Siraiki and Hazara provinces, Geo News reported.

Sardar Owais Leghari, Senator Jamal Khan Leghari, MNA Jafar Leghari, MPA Yousuf Leghari and Mohsin Leghari were present at the meeting held at the residence of Chaundry Shujaat Hussain in Lahore.

The delegation from Hazara comprised Syed Qasim Shah and Sardar Yousuf.

Both the delegations expressing their reservations to joining hands with the PPP, said the coalition should be formed on the basis of a demand for Siraiki province, having Bahawalpur, Dera Ghazi Khan and Multan division as its constituents.

Owais Leghari made it clear to the Chaudhry brothers that in case the coalition is formed on any other agenda, he would be part of the same.

On this the Chaudhry brothers held out the assurance that no decision would be made without party consultation.
