PESHAWAR, June 5: The People’s Party Parliamentarians has said it will not enter into an electoral alliance with the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz, but it may go for a seat-to-seat adjustment with it in the NWFP.

Talking to journalists at the Kakshal House here on Tuesday, PPP senior vice-chairman Syed Yousuf Raza Gillani said both the PPP and PML-N would continue struggling for the restoration of democracy from the platform of the Alliance for the Restoration of Democracy.

He said the PPP would introduce some basic changes into its manifesto in the light of geopolitical changes across the world. Mr Gillani, who heads the PPP’s manifesto committee, denied that MNA Aitzaz Ahsan was acting against the party line.

He said the PPP supported the stand of the legal fraternity on the ‘suspension’ of the Chief Justice of Pakistan, Mr Justice Iftikhar Muhammad Chaudhry. He dispelled the impression that party chairperson Benazir Bhutto had developed differences with Mr Ahsan.

Mr Gillani was accompanied by Kamal Azfar, a former governor of Sindh.

Mr Gillani said the PPP had its own political programme for which it had been struggling for the last three decades. He said the PPP was an opposition force, but it would join forces with the real democratic forces for the restoration of genuine democracy in the country.

He said he had discussed many political issues with the local party leaders and sought their opinion on some of the basic political issues.:
