DUBAI: A meeting of the central executive committee of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) held late on Wednesday decided that it will staunchly oppose any movement to derail democracy in the country, DawnNews reported.

The meeting held in Dubai was chaired by the party’s patron-in-chief Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari and co-chaired by former president Asif Ali Zardari.

During the meeting, the party reiterated its support for a democratic dispensation in the country and decided that the supremacy of Constitution should be upheld at all times.

The party’s huddle came as demonstrators led by the Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) and the Pakistan Awami Tehrik (PAT) marching in the capital are demanding a resignation from the Nawaz government.

The premier will address the National Assembly on Thursday to take the Parliament into confidence over the prevailing political situation.
