ISLAMABAD, May 1: Prime Minister Mir Zafarullah Khan Jamali will chair a meeting of heads of Pakistan Muslim League's five factions along with Sindh Democratic Alliance (Imtiaz Sheikh group) on May 2 at the PM House to discuss the unification arrangements
and to form a new unified entity to be called PML without any suffixes.
A party source said the purpose of convening the faction heads' meeting ahead of their separate meeting was to assess the situation in the light of their individual thinking on the unification process.
A statement made by Mr Jamali during his foreign tour the other day had created quite a stir as he was quoted to have called the process one of merging different factions instead of effecting unification, upon which the league factions had reached a consensus.
PML-Q information secretary senator Tariq Azeem told Dawn on Friday that the parliamentary leaders of respective league factions might also be invited to Sunday's meeting which will be followed by another one of the organizational group.
The party heads meeting is likely to finalize the schedule of joint general councils meeting of all the factions not later than May 20, Mr Azeem said.
PML-Q secretary-general Salim Saifullah Khan told Dawn that it will likely make a formal announcement of the implementation on the unification formula as given by S.M.Zafar.
