PML-N Willing To Form Fresh Electoral Partnerships

The PPP has hinted at the possibility of forming alliances against the PML-N, and the PML-N has expressed its openness to the idea of forging alliances in Sindh and other regions to enhance its chances in the upcoming general elections scheduled for February 8 next year.

PML-N leader and former Sindh governor Muhammad Zubair mentioned that the party would field candidates nationwide. However, in areas where the party’s presence is weak, they are willing to consider alliances, seat adjustments, or understandings.

In Sindh, the PML-N will focus on urban areas, particularly Karachi, with plans to field as many candidates as possible. Regarding potential alliances in Sindh, they are open to collaboration with the GDA and the MQM, but the final decision will rest with the party leadership.

The PPP, on the other hand, has suggested the possibility of an electoral alliance with the PTI to counter the PML-N in Punjab. While some party leaders downplayed this statement as unofficial, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari’s remarks appeared to lend support to the idea.

However, certain party leaders maintained that the PPP would not consider an alliance with the PTI. They suggested that Asif Ali Zardari had directed the party leadership to avoid any impression of aligning with the PTI.

The PPP Central Punjab Acting President Rana Farooq Saeed clarified that his statement had been taken out of context. He mentioned that he had expressed a willingness to consider alliances but clarified that it was his personal opinion, not the official party position.

In summary, both the PML-N and the PPP are open to the possibility of electoral alliances, with the PML-N focusing on Sindh and the PPP considering options in Punjab.
