The move came shortly after a meeting of the PDM- constituent parties with its chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman in the chair in Islamabad. Two major opposition parties — ANP and PPP — were not invited to the meeting.

Speaking to the media after the meeting, Maulana Fazl said both the parties still had time to reconsider their decision to quit the alliance and contact the PDM. “The PDM is an alliance of the 11 opposition parties, where decisions are made with a consensus and if any party is found going against its decision then it must be made answerable,” he pointed out.
