The Tehreek Tahafuz-i-Ayeen Pakistan (TTAP) has hinted at initiating a movement against the ruling government, expressing hope that Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman might lead the charge. This potential alliance was formalized last week, following recent tensions between the JUI-F and the federal government.
Fazl has been vocal in his criticism of the government, particularly regarding the imposition of governor's rule in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. Since mid-October, there have been heated exchanges between Fazl and federal ministers, stemming from Fazl's accusation that the center has reneged on its commitments. TTAP spokesperson Akhundzada Hussain Ahmed Yousufzai warned that JUI-F would face the same fate as the PTI, and that the movement would support those being suppressed.
The TTAP also announced plans to hold a multiparty conference (MPC) soon, with the intention of starting a movement against the government. The opposition alliance has condemned recent allegations against Fazl, calling them "deeply regrettable" and urging an end to personal attacks.
