By engaging directly with Maulana Fazlur Rahman, Nawaz Sharif aims to strengthen the unity of purpose and create a formidable front against the current political landscape.
Earlier in the day, Maulana Fazlur Rehman expressed ‘displeasure’ over Zardari-Nawaz Dubai meeting held last month to ‘resolve political issues.’
Sources privy to the development said Fazlur Rehman ‘wants’ delay of general elections for a year, while the former president and Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari ‘opposed’ the suggestion and asserted for timely polls.
Zardari in a meeting with Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz supremo, Nawaz Sharif in Dubai ‘convinced’ him also to hold elections on time as per the constitution, the sources said.
Furthermore, it has been learned that Maulana Fazlur Rehman was not made part of the Dubai meeting due to his ‘rigid’ stance.
