LAHORE: Chief of his own faction of Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam Maulana Fazlur Rehman called on former prime minister Nawaz Sharif at his Jati Umra residence on Sunday.
As per details, the JUI-F leader met the PML-N supreme leader to invite him to attend a multi-party conference to be convened by his party and convince him to meet former president Asif Ali Zardari.
Besides, various issues, including the current political situation in the country, and a joint anti-government alliance, came under discussion.
Speaking to media a day earlier, Fazlur Rehman stressed that opposition parties knew how important it was to stay united and launch a joint struggled from a common platform.
He said the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) has always been used for political ends. He regretted that the political parties committed a mistake by not amending the NAB during the 18th amendment.
Separately, Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari on Saturday said that he or his party are not interested in toppling the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) government.
Addressing a press conference in Lahore, the former president said that he doesn’t want to topple the government but wants the PTI to fail and leave the government.
About the upcoming All Parties Conference (APC) against the government and the parties’ participation, he said that the initiative was taken by Maulana Fazlur Rehman and it is yet to be seen if the conference sees the light of the day or not.
“Neither Nawaz (Sharif) needs me nor do I need him, this initiative (APC) was taken by Maulana Fazlur Rehman and it is yet to be seen if it is successful,” said Zardari while answering a question about a PML-N, PPP alliance against the government.
