Shehbaz PM, Zardari president as PPP, PML-N agree to form govt

All the matters relating to formation of government have been settled between the Pakistan Muslim League-N and the People’s Party.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, while holding a press conference with Shahbaz Sharif and Asif Zardari in Islamabad, said that the Pakistan People’s Party and the PML-N have completed their numbers for forming the government. He said that Shehbaz Sharif will be a joint candidate for premiership while Asif Ali Zardari for president.

Bilawal Bhutto Zardari said that our prayer is for the country to be successful. May Allah support us solving all the problems.

On this occasion, Shehbaz Sharif said that Pakistan People’s Party and PML-N have full numbers to form the government. We are in a position to form a new government, Asif Zardari will be elected as the president for five years, other allies MQM-P and PML-Q will vote together.

Shehbaz said that independent candidates should prove their majority and form the government. We will accept it wholeheartedly. Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf has formed an alliance with the Sunni Ittihad Council and MWM, but despite this they do not have enough numbers to form the government. .

The PML-N president said that we will proceed with consultation, we thank Asif Zardari and Bilawal for their full support. This is not a matter of taking turns, we have to get Pakistan out of difficulties. We have elders in our alliance. And youth too, when both of them come together, they become a great power.
