SHIKARPUR, Oct 25: Federal Minister for Railways Ghous Bux Mahar has said that provincial president of the Pakistan Muslim League-Q will be nominated from lower Sindh while the general secretary will be from Karachi.

Talking to newsmen at his residence on Friday, Mr Mahar said decision in this regard would be taken by party leader Chaudhry Shujaat.

Responding to a questioner, the federal minister said PML groups had been united to work under a single flag with the bless of Pir Pagaro.

He said the government was serving people in a better manner and there was no threat of dissolution of assemblies.
