HUB, Sept 18: The president of Pakistan Muslim League (Quaid-i-Azam), Balochistan, Jam Mohammed Yousuf, on Wednesday said his party was holding negotiations for seats adjustment with Muttahida Majlis-i-Amal and Awami National Party.

Talking to notables and party workers, he expressed his hope that the understanding with those parties would help PML(QA) sweep the elections.

He said his party aimed to address the grievances of the people of the province.

Jam Yousuf said that if voted to power, PML(QA) would give priority to the solution of the problem of water shortage by setting up hundreds of delay action dams and installing tubewells so that the agriculture sector in the province could be boosted.

He said people of the Pakhtoon belt were against the reduction in the number of districts in the province from 26 to 22.

He said PML(QA) would restore the districts after coming into power.

Pir Abdul Qadir Algelani, PML(QA) candidate for NA-270 , said provision of water and electricity to the people of the constituency would be his party’s priority.

He said he would raise voice for the provision of electricity at flat rates to the farmers of Lasbela.

He was of the view that people living in Lasbela and Awaran, particularly on the coastal belt, were deprived of proprietary rights of the lands on which they had been living or cultivating for centuries.

“Provision of employment to the people of the area will be one of my top priorities,” he said and added that he would struggle for extension of tax holiday by five years for the units established in Lasbela Industrial Estate Development Authority.
