Sources claimed that a total of four independent politicians from Balochistan are likely to join the PPP.

Meanwhile, PPP leadership also called independent MPAs from Balochistan to the federal capital, sources added.
Earlier in the day, the former opposition leader in National Assembly and PML-N leader Raja Riaz
claimed that former prime minister Shehbaz Sharif and PPP-co chairman Asif Ali Zardari have finalised the terms of government formation.
In an exclusive interview with ARY News Raja Riaz claimed not to take the PPP and PML-N committees seriously as matters related to government formation have already been decided between former prime minister Shehbaz Sharif and PPP-co chairman Asif Ali Zardari.
He revealed that all of them (PPP) would be seen in the cabinet along with PML-N and if they were denied they wouldn’t be able to form government in Sindh too.
