ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Peoples Party Parliamentarians (PPPP) President Asif Ali Zardari continued consultations with the coalition partners to formulate a strategy to challenge PTI Chairman Imran Khan’s decision to dissolve the Punjab and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa assemblies and leave the other two provincial assemblies.
In this regard, a PMLN delegation comprising Interior Minister Rana Sanaullah, Minister for Economic Affairs Sardar Ayaz Sadiq and Minister for Railways and Aviation Khawaja Saad Rafiq visited the Zardari House to hold a meeting with Asif Zardari and discussed all constitutional and legal options to thwart the political move of Imran Khan.
