Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) leader Bilawal Bhutto Zardari has pledged support to his rival Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N).
In this way, the way seems to be clear for the formation of a new government in Pakistan. Bilawal dropped out of the race for the post of Prime Minister on Tuesday.
He said his party would support any candidate proposed by the Nawaz Sharif-led PML-N. Bhutto said that her party was not going to join the cabinet.
Bilawal Bhutto said on Tuesday, ‘If this House fails to elect the Prime Minister and the government is not formed, then we will have to go back for elections again.
In such a situation a political crisis will arise. He said that Pakistan Peoples Party will not accept ministries in the government and will support the government on the basis of issues.
Let us tell you that in the recently concluded parliamentary elections in Pakistan, PPP has emerged as the third largest party.
Discussion continues between PML-N and PPP
There has been a divided mandate in Pakistan’s parliamentary elections. Since then, efforts to form a coalition government have intensified.
Top leaders of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz and Pakistan Peoples Party have discussed the new power sharing formula to divide the 5-year term.
Independent candidates supported by jailed former Prime Minister Imran Khan’s Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) have won the most seats in Parliament.
Despite this, questions remain regarding the picture of the next government of Pakistan. But now the path seems to be clear for Nawaz Sharif.
