PMLQ to discuss political differences with PM Imran Khan
Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain presided over a meeting in Islamabad to analyse political disputes with PTI
LAHORE (Dunya News) – Amidst the recent rift between the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and its coalition partner the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PMLQ) over certain disagreements, the PMLQ leadership has decided to raise its reservations with Prime Minister Imran Khan.
Reportedly, the party has decided on its next course of action in a consultative meeting in Islamabad, particularly regarding alliance with the federal government, under the leadership of Chaudhary Shujaat Hussain.
PMLQ’s members of national and provincial assemblies joined the meeting.
Earlier, Punjab Chief Minister (CM) Usman Buzdar failed to convince Punjab Assembly Speaker Chaudhary Pervez Elahi when he complained of matters not being resolved after a consensus was achieved amongst them.
“There has been no implementation on certain issues which were to be fixed as part of our alliance,” Elahi said in a regretful manner.
The political situation detriorated when Punjab Minister for Mines and Minerals Ammar Yasir, the lone minister of the PML-Q in the Punjab cabinet, tendered his resignation on Friday to Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain and Elahi, only a few days after PTI’s federal information minister Fawad Chaudhry talked about creating a forward bloc in the PML-Q.
Besides, following the meeting, Elahi revealed that his party was to be given two federal and two punjab ministries.
Responding to the speaker, Buzdar said he was not aware about the matter and it would be discussed with the Prime Minister Imran Khan.
