PML-N confirms contacts with Q-league, MQM

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has approached Muttahida Qaumi Movement (MQM) and Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) to hold anti-government protests over prolonged electricity load shedding and soaring prices.

Speaking to newsmen in Lahore, PML-N’s Information Secretary Mushahidullah confirmed his party has made contacts with the MQM and PML-Q to run an anti-government campaign.
“In view of increasing public issues, loadshedding and inflation, PML-N has started wooing opposition parties and government’s allies,” he said.
In the earlier part of the day, the ministers and members from PML-Q expressed non-confidence over the government and submitted their resignation before the party President Chaudhary Shujaat Hussain. Online
