GNA to win elections, claims leader

Published September 25, 2002

QUETTA Sept 24: The Grand National Alliance (GNA) will win the Oct 10 general elections as people of the country will reject the parties whose leadership looted national resources and fled.

This was claimed by alliance Secretary-General Mohammad Ali Durrani while speaking at a press conference along with Mir Taj Mohammad Khan Jamali, ex-Balochistan chief minister, here on Tuesday.

“People want a positive change in the country’s politics and the alliance will bring it after winning the elections,” Mr Durrani claimed, and added that the nation had given chances to both the PPP and PML-N twice, but instead of resolving problems of the poor their leadership had minted money.

He alleged that now the leaders of those parties were pumping huge money through their agents into the elections to sabotage free, fair and transparent polls process. They wanted to postpone the elections, he added.

But, he said, they had failed to mobilize the people for launching any movement against the government as people knew their designs.
