SANGHAR, March 16: The chief Khalifa of Sarwari Jamaat, Noor Hassan Dars, has criticised a statement made by Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Khwaja Asif about PPP leader Makhdoom Amin Fahim and said that disciples of Mr Fahim have been hurt by the allegation levelled against their Pir.

Speaking at a press conference in Khipro on Sunday, Mr Dars said that Mr Fahim had served the Pakistan People’s Party for more than 40 years and kept the party united when Benazir Bhutto was in exile therefore it was his right to become prime minister.

He warned that more than one million members of the Sarwari Jamaat would protest if he was not made prime minister.
