On Wednesday, opposition leaders convened at the residence of Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman in Islamabad. They reached an agreement to fortify their alliance and enhance parliamentary coordination. The meeting also discussed critical issues, such as the emergency and governor’s rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP) and plans for a Multi-Party Conference (MPC).
The National Assembly (NA) and Senate opposition leaders, including Mahmood Khan Achakzai, Allama Raja Nasir Abbas, Asad Qaiser, and PTI Secretary General Salman Akram Raja, attended. Tehreek-i-Tahafuz-i-Ayin-i-Pakistan (TTAP), led by Achakzai, characterized the gathering as a "united opposition" meeting. Earlier, JUI-F had announced plans to form a "united opposition" alliance following a meeting between Fazl and Achakzai on August 20.
At the meeting, opposition leaders vowed to continue discussions and establish a committee to resolve differences among opposition parties.
