Zardari also said that though President Pervez Musharraf had a role to play in Pakistan’s new political setup, the PPP would think about impeaching him when the ruling coalition achieves a two-thirds majority in parliament.
The co-chairman of PPP refused to give a firm commitment that he would become the prime minister but said he would assume the office if the “need arises”.

Zardari had last month nominated Yousuf Raza Gillani for the post of premier after extensive consultations within the PPP and had then said that he had no plans to take up the post.

Zardari said he and his sister Faryal Talpur will submit nomination papers for by-polls to his wife Benazir Bhutto’s constituency of Larkana in Sindh province.
