Hinting at giving Karachi mayorship to JI, Saeed Ghani said matters can only be resolved through talks, mayorship cannot be given to JI at only demands on TV, he added.

“JI should shun ‘dual standards’ and refrain from disturbing law and order.”
Ghani said that those who had been expressing surprise at the victory of the PPP in the local government elections were most probably oblivious to the fact that five sitting MNAs and seven MPAs of the PPP are from Karachi. PPP won the LG polls from the areas of Karachi where it was having voters’ support.
“While people are amazed at the PPP’s victory in Lyari and District West while there is no surprise at the JI’s victories in the districts Central, East, and Korangi,” said the PPP leader.
