Abstract
A method to obtain exact solutions characterizing spherically symmetric charged perfect fluid distributions undergoing shear-free motion has been discussed. This method makes use of the criterion that the solution be free from movable critical points as has been employed earlier by Shah and Vaidya. Two solutions have been obtained, one of which is new and the other is the recent solution due to Sussman.
