LAHORE (92 News) – JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rahman called on PML-N president Shehbaz Sharif on Sunday. Both leaders agreed to continue efforts for a joint candidate for the presidential elections. Talking to the media, Maulana Fazlur Rahman said that it is easy for the PPP to withdraw its candidate. “To withdraw another candidate, reservations of five parties of the MMA will have to be removed,” he maintained. The JUI-F said that the PPP had nominated him the convener of the all parties. “All parties have seen the solution to the dispute in Fazlur Rahman. We have good relations with Aitzaz Ahsan,” he stated. He said that the PPP did not use its votes in the election for the prime minister. PML-N leader Hamza Shehbaz said that they had nominated Maulana Fazlur Rahman as a joint candidate of the opposition and will try to convince other parties.
