The Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaaf (PTI) and Jamat-e-Islami (JI) are considering forming an alliance against corruption and toppling the present government. The consensus to prepare the working paper for the alliance was reached during a meeting of PTI and JI chiefs held two days ago, in which the national and international situation was discussed in detail, sources said.
They said the meeting was attended by key leaders and heads of PTI and JI and important issues, including the prevailing political and economic situation of the country and international issues, were discussed in detail. Sources said the two sides agreed on preparation of terms and conditions for a PTI-JI alliance. They said the formal announcement of the collaboration might be delayed for a few days, as both parties wanted to forge a grand alliance with other political parties and contacts with these parties, especially in Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Sindh, would be made after Eid. The foundation of the alliance would be based on the agenda of freedom from US pressure, defence of national interests, eradication of corruption from the country, implementation of court decisions and reforms in election. Both parties also agreed to hold meetings in the future.
The sources said both parties had been in contact for the last three-and-a-half years, but were struggling against the corruption separately. Both parties’ leaders verified the meeting and said corruption had engulfed Pakistan and nobody was ready to lead the country in the right direction. JI chief Syed Munawar Hasan and Deputy Secretary General Farid Piracha on Sunday visited the residence of PTI Chairman Imran Khan and congratulated him for holding a successful rally at Minar-e-Pakistan. Sources said PTI was planning to contest the next polls under an electoral alliance of likeminded political forces, besides the option of seat adjustment.
They said the PTI had set up offices in 28 of 36 districts of Punjab and in 18 of 24 districts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. However, the PTI has a limited organisational network in Sindh and Balochistan due to which it wanted to form an alliance with likeminded parties.
I dont think this is a good idea. PTI will alienate a lot of its supporters by choseing to ally itself with marginal party
JI is not corrupt party and alliance on issues is possible with every party.
Joining hands with JI will strengthen the allegation on Imran Khan of supporting Taliban, and what about the people whom IK has given impression of non extremist by including music and songs in his concerts. it will go against IK and especially the etile will not like at all including students.
he is not joining man, its fake
#ImranKhan should believe in the people of #Pakistan instead of famous faces. The whole nation has seen on Oct 30 that the Pakistanis have supported PTI over Nawaz Sharif (the two times elected prime minister) and that too in his stronghold. If Imran still does not believe he can win elections, he can not be credited as a good leader. PTI should give tickets to the honest people throughout the country and do proper homework to get them succeeded but if PTI accommodates the other parties (same politicians whom people hate) and believes in traditional politics, I am afraid she will lose her grace and educated (read leftist) voters, who for the first time are participating in the national politics just to support Imran. If Imran needs money for his party, he may appeal to the nation. I invite him to do so, and I assure him he will generate more funds than what he collected from overseas Pakistanis. At this stage (when Imran Khan can easily become the prime minister of Pakistan by making alliances with other parties), it is very difficult for him to be principled, but let me tell you if Imran Khan tries short cuts to success, his whole struggle will end up in failure.
Mind you, #PTI may not get elected in this election if she chooses to give ticket to deserving but less electable candidates but she will appear as a very strong political force and a true change in the coming years.
@ImranKhanPTI #ImranKhan should believe in the people of #Pakistan instead of famous faces. The whole nation has seen on Oct 30 that the Pakistanis have supported #PTI over #Nawaz Sharif (the two times elected prime minister) and that too in his stronghold. If Imran still does not believe he can win elections, he can not be credited as a visionary leader. PTI should give tickets to the honest people throughout the country and do proper homework to get them succeeded but if PTI enters in an alliance with other parties (JI, PML Q, PML N ) and believes in traditional politics, I am afraid she will lose her identity and educated (read leftist) voters, who for the first time are participating in the national politics just to support Imran. If Imran needs money for his party, he may appeal to the nation. I invite him to do so, and I assure him he will generate more funds than what he collected from overseas Pakistanis.

its a 100% fake news, as omer cheema said that pti is not making alliance with any party..its propaganda directs by all time allies ppp n pmln
good decision of joining hands for common goals of justice, freedom and corruption free country. people who criticize IK for being against war on terror will not give PTI votes any way so dont need to worry about these sectarian and social class fascists.
