LAHORE: Leaders of different factions of Muslim League gathered at the residence of former governor of Punjab Sardar Zulfiqar Ali Khosa here on Saturday and discussed modalities for launching the Muttahida Muslim League (MML).
PML-Q president Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, former speaker of National Assembly Hamid Nasir Chattha, former chief minister of Sindh Ghous Ali Shah, former chief minister of Punjab Dost Mohammad Khosa, Sardar Attique Ahmed and Rashid Qureshi attended the meeting.
They discussed bringing all factions of Muslim League, except the one led by Nawaz Sharif, and disgruntled leaders and workers of PML-N on the platform of the proposed MML.
Talking to reporters after the meeting, Chaudhry Shujaat said his faction together with other Muslim Leagues would launch struggle against rulers.
Hamid Nasir Chattha said the formation of the MML might be announced after the next round of meeting.
Earlier, Chaudhry Shujaat met All Pakistan Muslim League president retired Gen Pervez Musharraf and PML-F chief Pir Sibghatullah Shah Rashidi. All these leaders agreed to join hands.
Zulfiqar Khosa said that a new Muslim League with all its factions, except PML-N, on board was the need of the hour. “We earlier had discussed about forging an alliance of all Muslim Leagues but later decided to form a new party,” he added.

So no ideology, no principles, no nothing. All you need to do is to be against pmln and you can become a part of mml.

You are a commodity that has already been spent. You enjoyed power for the longest time and did nothing for Pakistan. I am no fan of PML N but they are a lot better than you on a relative basis.

Nothing wrong forming a new political party called MML (Nuttahda Muslim League). However, people would like to see a political party that is formed to 'serve' the people of Pakistan, instead of serving politicians and their friends.

All disrungled elements from PMLN are wellcome. Meaning if you are corrupt to the core and also good for nothing at the same time , then wellcome to MML. Then at the eve of elction make an alliance with clean and pure PTI in order to gain power. Tabdeeli aa gaiy heiy .
No surprise here , after all thats all Musharraf do . gather willing partners even if corupt .

The MML will take some votes away from PMLN and make it easy for PTI to gain over PMLN in some seats during the next elections.

Whatever may PML-N trolls say. Governance in Punjab was way better in Pervez Elahi era. Rescue 1122, Warden Traffic Police, Pardha Likha Punjab Scheme under which hundreds and thousands of children enrolled in Schools. Lahore transport system was much better, development in every district of Punjab happened instead of only in Lahore under PML-N. And PML-N has only metro to show for which serves only 1% population of Lahore. No policies for agriculture and small industries. They are in for a grand beating cometh the next elections.

@Dilectus Mr so-called dilectus what a poor analysis of the King's party performance you have made! Do you please explain the huge inflows of sums paid by USA in coalition support fund and u-turn took on Afghan and Kashmir policies? During that particular era not even a single watt was added to national grid
