ISLAMABAD: The joint opposition held its first parliamentary meeting at Parliament House on Monday and announced a collective strategy to address violence, the economic crisis and political repression.
The meeting was attended by opposition party leaders, including Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman, National Assembly Opposition Leader Mahmood Khan Achakzai, Senate Opposition Leader Allama Raja Nasir Abbas Jafri, PTI Chairman Barrister Gohar Ali Khan and others.
Speaking at a press conference after the meeting, the JUI-F chief said opposition parties had agreed to play a joint role in parliament and stressed that collective strategies and actions would be pursued through mutual consultation.
He said it was not the time to divide the provinces, warning that such a move would only increase mistrust among the federating units.
