Former president and PPP co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari’s confidant Senator Abdul Qayyum Soomro is learned to have been holding secret meetings with PDM chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman.
Well-placed sources informed that Soomro met Maulana Fazlur Rehman thrice over the past few days and discussed with him the future of the opposition alliance and the PPP-PML-N rifts.
Maulana Fazlur Rehman is still unhappy with the PPP’s move regarding ex-PM Yousaf Raza Gillani’s nomination as Opposition Leader in the Senate, they said, adding Soomro conveyed the former president’s message to the PDM chief insisting that the
alliance should accept Gillani as opposition leader and move on.
