ISLAMABAD: A meeting between the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) coordination committees, which was expected to take place on Friday for finalising government formation in the Centre, has been postponed, according to a media report.
The meeting was reportedly postponed as the PML-N’s committee has yet to consult on the matter with the party’s senior leadership, News channel reported. The second round of talks between the two parties to decide on the power-sharing formula between them for the formation of a coalition government will be held on Saturday, it said.
The Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari-led PPP has promised to back PML-N in the formation of a government as well as the election of the next prime minister, on the condition that Nawaz Sharif’s party will support them in elections to key constitutional offices like that of the President.
