With around a dozen former and incumbent members of parliament waiting in their wings to join the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) upon acceptance of their “demands”, several of the party’s old guards, including sitting parliamentarians, are perturbed and mulling parting ways with the party to protest the development.
Well-placed sources in the PML-N divulged to Pakistan Today that prominent among those who were set to join the PML-N were former close friends and comrades of General (r) Pervez Musharraf.
However, their joining the PML-N may bode bad news for the party, as many of its senior leaders could opt to resign in protest. Sources in the PML-N said party President Nawaz Sharif believed that roping in so-called “electables” and winning horses was necessary for politics. “Nawaz wants to have a majority in the next National Assembly, which is why he has opened the doors of the party for the every time-server and opportunist who has lost his old political bearings and is eager to make a new beginning,” the sources said.
“The list of opportunists ready to join the PML-N, albeit conditionally, is long. Those politicians who are in contact with the PML-N leadership and may join the party anytime before the general election include former chairman of National Reconstruction Bureau (NRB) Daniyal Aziz, former National Assembly speaker Chaudhry Amir, PPP Minister Firdous Ashiq Awan, former Chakwal district nazim Sardar Ghulam Abbas and many others,” sources said. They said after the defeat of its nominee from Narowal in the by-polls, the PML-N leadership had contacted Daniyal Aziz.

  1. Nothing unexpected. There is a long hostory of changing affiliations as per oppurtunity. Mian Nawaz Sharif himself is in his fourth political party. I cannot stop laughing when Mian Nawaz Sharif's supporters preach moralities….

  2. I can only say 'LoL'. Mian Nawaz Sharref the self proclaimed, self righteous morality preacher is accepting every turncoat. Its called "Thhok ke chatna". If he had to do all this, why not to shake hands with PML(Q) 4 years ago?

  3. You are brain dead or what. This news is about Musharaf's stalwarts PML Nakam League. By far, it has nofing to do with PTI.

  4. Daniel Aziz was like a Son to President Musharraf plus he is a US national……great for PML-N too.
