ISLAMABAD: Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Wednesday met PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz and discussed a decision made by the PPP on resignations from the assemblies, ARY NEWS reported.
Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) a day before has decided against resigning from the assemblies besides also hinting that it would take part in the Senate polls, the party Chairman Bilawal Bhutto announced after the CEC meeting.
“We have lauded the PPP’s decision that a final decision on resignations will be made from the PDM’s platform,” the JUI-F chief said while addressing to media after a meeting with Maryam Nawaz.
He said that a PDM meeting on January 01 will be held in Lahore to discuss the future course of action besides also devising a reaction over the arrest of PML-N leader Khwaja Asif by NAB authorities.
“The incumbent authorities are using NAB for political victimization,” he blamed adding that they would bring an end to political victimization after coming into power.
