The PML-N has completed the initial phase of talks with the MQM-P and other parties in Sindh for a joint strategy to contest the February 8 elections and run the country’s affairs afterwards.
These ongoing developments are of great significance for not just the politics of Karachi and Sindh but of also entire Pakistan after the PPP has been witnessing a shrinking vote base which is now mostly, if not entirely, concentrated in rural Sindh.
It is reported that the subcommittees formed by the PML-N and the MQM-P to discuss and finalise proposals on different subjects completed their assigned tasks, including the most immediate goal – how to go for seat adjustment in the upcoming polls.
In the next stage, the two parties will hold a meeting in Islamabad for giving final shape to the future line of action before the top leadership could give approval to the same.
The PML-N has given the task of coordinating the elections affairs in Sindh to Khawaja Saad Rafique and in Balochistan to Sardar Ayaz Sadiq.
