QUETTA, Aug 22: Pakhtoonkhwa Milli Awami Party Chairman Mehmood Khan Achakzai said on Wednesday that negotiations are under way between component parties of Pakistan Oppressed Nations Movement (Ponam) for election adjustments.

“The result of the negotiation would be positive,” Mehmood Achakzai said at a press conference.

He said the PMAP would contest elections on national and provincial assembly seats in northern Balochistan.

He said negotiations for seat adjustments were also going on with Pakistan Muslim League.

“However, no adjustments or contacts would be made with pro-military-government parties,” he said.

He said all nationalities should be provided their share and rights.
