KARACHI (Dunya News) - Giving details about PPP’s intra-party elections, newly-elected Secretary-General Sardar Latif Khan Khosa said that PPP has elected its new office bearers and it would now be registered with the Election Commission of Pakistan.

 

He said that Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has been elected as Patron-in-Chief of the PPP and the office of chairman has been abolished. Though he would not say that president has quit the political office, but he confirmed that there is no place for a co-chairman in the new organisational chart.
