Key PDM meeting to decide strategy for long march today

ISLAMABAD (92 News) - The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM), alliance of 11 opposition parties, will held a key meeting today to finalise their strategy regarding the upcoming long march towards Islamabad.

According to the sources, the meeting will also decide whether or not to resign from assemblies – an option strongly opposed by PPP, while PML-N and JUI-F believe en masse resignations would help them dislodge the PTI government.

The PDM leaders will sit together in Islamabad to review the political situation in the country after the recently-held Senate polls and by-elections, which, according to them have shaken the ruling party.

The contentious point of the agenda would be the resignation from assemblies which has put the PPP at loggerheads with PML-N and JUI-F who had been calling to quit since December. The PPP, however, has been convincing them to opt for an in-house change and use the resignation strategy as a “last resort”.
