It emerged that PPP chairman and co-chairman, Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and Asif Ali Zardari, had discussed political developments in Pakistan with Nawaz Sharif via conference call from Shehbaz Sharif’s telephone during the meeting held in Karachi yesterday.
Sources added that the top leaders of the two major opposition parties had agreed on making joint political efforts against the present government. They also agreed for organising all parties conference (APC) which would be jointly hosted by PML-N and PPP to run an anti-government movement.
They also discussed the agenda of the APC for making consensus between PML-N and PPP. Both political parties decided not to become part of any plan for denting the continuance of democracy in the country.
Earlier on Wednesday, Shehbaz Sharif had met Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari during his visit to Karachi.
