The meeting has come against the backdrop of the PPP’s decision to oppose resignation from the assemblies, forcing the PDM head Fazlur Rehman to announce the postponement of the long march on March 26.

The PPP since then has been criticised for ditching the opposition alliance with Fazlur Rehman saying that nine parties have decided in favour of the resignations option while only PPP decided against it with Asif Zardari demanding Nawaz Sharif to return to Pakistan and lead the campaign against the incumbent government.
