SUKKUR, Feb 2: Federal Minister for Inter-Provincial Coordination Mir Hazar Khan Bijarani has termed the ban on recruitment before the announcement of election date “unconstitutional and against the law”.

He was talking to media personnel during a visit to Tangwani district on Saturday.

Terrorists were conspiring to derail democracy and postpone elections but they would not succeed, he said adding elections would be held as per schedule.

The minister informed his workers that the PPP was working for the welfare of people and had completed various development schemes in almost all cities and towns.

People, he said, would again give PPP the mandate to rule for five years and with a huge majority, he added.
