PML-N leader and former Sindh governor Muhammad Zubair said the PML-N will field candidates throughout the country. “However, in areas where our presence is weak, we will make alliances, seat adjustments, or understanding,” he said.
He mentioned that in Sindh province, the party will also focus on urban areas, especially in Karachi, where they want to field a maximum number of candidates. Regarding the PPP forging alliances against the PML-N, he said his party is also open to alliances in Sindh with the GDA and the MQM.
“A decision in this regard will, however, be taken by the party leadership,” he added.
This week, PPP Central Punjab Acting President Rana Farooq Saeed had formally announced that the PPP might consider an electoral alliance with the beleaguered PTI in order to counter the PML-N in Punjab. Some party leaders were quick to downplay this statement, claiming that it was not the PPP’s official position.
However, on Friday, while responding to a question regarding the possibility of an alliance with the PTI, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari stated that they had not made any decision in this regard.
