Earlier on January 22, the JUI-F announced to support Saira Bano, the candidate of the Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) from NA-210 (Sanghar-II) for the General Elections 2024.
However, the JUI-F refused to tender its support for the GDA’s candidate for the Sindh Assembly’s PS-44 seat. Saira Bano asked the JUI-F to support the GDA from both national and provincial constituencies.
The GDA candidate also came down heavily on the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) over its ‘corruption’ in Sindh for the past 15 years. “PPP has been looting Sindh for last 15 years. How many more years will it loot the province,” Saira Bano asked.
