When a journalist asked him how come did he get elected as a senator from Islamabad despite the fact that the government had the required votes to get its candidate Dr Abdul Hafeez Shaikh elected, he said: “The government’s position was different at that time as there was a huge distance between the prime minister and members of Parliament, which benefited us.”

The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) has nominated Senator-elect Yousuf Raza Gillani and JUI-F general secretary Ghafoor Haideri as joint candidates for the Senate chairman and deputy chairman slots, respectively.
