Gillani to ‘work with all democratic forces’
ISLAMABAD: PPP’s nominee for the post of prime minister, Yousaf Raza Gillani, said on Saturday that he wanted to work with all democratic forces in the country. Gillani, a former National Assembly speaker, is a virtual certainty to be elected as prime minister on Monday by a parliament, which is dominated by a PPP-led coalition. “We have to take all democratic forces along. I will be giving a policy statement and spelling out my priorities on the floor of the House,” Gillani said. “I am thankful to my party leadership for putting their trust in me,” Gillani added. afp
