I didn’t speak against PDP. I respected the party symbol even when I was denied the party mandate. I am compelled to tell you that Mufti Mohammad Sayeed’s stature in the party has weakened which is the reason for current turmoil in the party. If Mufti Sayeed asks the party leaders to do this or that thing ten times, it would not be given a practical shape. He has become a pawn in his own party.″
