So finally its official - PML-N and PPP are one

[Bewal Express]

This was never in doubt as the corrupt feel the heat.

In a bid to give the PTI-led incumbent government a tough time, the PPP and PML-N on Wednesday announced their decision to field joint candidates in the upcoming by-elections scheduled to be held on October 14, DawnNewsTV reported.

A meeting in this regard, held at the Parliament Lodges in Islamabad, was attended by the senior leaders of both the former ruling parties. During the meeting, a strategy for the upcoming by-elections was discussed and both groups reportedly found themselves on the same page regarding the fielding of candidates.

Talking to media persons following the meeting, PPP Secretary General Nayyar Hussain Bukhari said that the "fruitful" decision to field joint candidates was made following approval from the senior leadership of both the parties. Moreover, efforts were underway to join hands with other parties as well, he added.

"The PML-N has agreed to support the PPP candidates contesting from Karachi," PPP leader Qamar Zaman Kaira told reporters.

The grand opposition alliance formed by 11 parties soon after the July 25 elections had fallen apart within weeks following the PPP’s refusal to vote for PML-N president Shahbaz Sharif against PTI chief Imran Khan in the election of prime minister despite agreeing on a formula during a meeting of the multiparty conference.

However, the PPP had backed out of its commitment and asked the PML-N to replace Shahbaz with some other candidate, explaining that the party could not vote for him as he had made some controversial remarks against Zardari during the election campaign.

The cracks within the opposition ranks deepened when the PPP unilaterally nominated Aitzaz Ahsan as the presidential candidate, drawing the ire of other opposition parties.

After going their separate ways for the key offices of prime minister and president and causing serious damage to the opposition’s unity, this comes as the first development where both the parties are willing to put aside their differences and band together against the PTI-led government.

It's a marriage of convenience. Both the parties are corrupt to the core and it's only natural that they are feeling the heat.

Politics Politics Politics.



PPP & PML N cannot play on front foot because of Asif Ali Zardari’s fresh cases. Otherwise even this PTI government wouldn’t have form in the first place.



Bilawal’s hands are tied due to his father.

Asif Ali Zardari has suffered immensely due to Pakistan’s Establishment and he failed to bow down infront of them for 11 plus years.


But,



Zardari played in the hands of Political wing of ISI in


1. Toppling PML N gov in Balochistan

2. Connived with Imran Khan Niazi and his Masters (Establishment) in Senate elections thereby robbing PML N of Senate’s Chairmanship which was Muslim Leagues right.


This was done for


a. Let dubious accounts case which started in 2014 remain under the carpet before general elections by making ISI and its arm NAB happy.

b. Stop PML N from making amendments in Law through Senate if they gained Majority in 2018 GE.



Zardari and Imran played superbly in the hands of Establishment and achieved the desired results.



Than Mr.Zardari appeased PTI, Imran Khan and Khan’s Hamdlers in Headquarters Rawalpindi in


1. Pm Election

2. NA Speaker election

3. Punjab Assembly Speaker Election



And than Zardari got bail before arrest, delay in JIT & absense of those two brigadiers in JIT (Panama, Dawn Leaks & Ishaq Dar JIT)




کوئی شرم کوئی حیاء

PPP and PML N having joint candidates from Punjab is just FaceSaving for PPP because PPP has almost no votebank in Punjab at the moment.

Facing for criminal entities. When will SS drag AZ through the streets, will he do it when AZ comes to sign the deal?

I see the marriage of the crooks was consummated in Lahore and Karachi today.

Two parties that are ideologically so different that it doesn't make sense. Of course this alliance isn't based on ideology. They're threatened by a third-party. So instead of improving their governance, they've joined hands to keep the third party out and so they can continue to loot the country.

Whatever happened to Showbiz dragging AZ through the streets? Or has the topi drama ended as both face an existential threat from the Kaptaan?
