ISLAMABAD: Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl (JUI-F) has activated in Sindh to form a new political alliance to give tough time to Pakistan People’s Party (PPP), citing sources, ARY News reported on Monday.
The JUI-F has started preparations to form an alternative political alliance of Grand Democratic Alliance (GDA) to challenge the ruling Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) in Sindh province, sources told ARY News.
JUI-F central leader Rashid Soomro has contacted key political personalities of Sindh to appease them for joining the new alliance. According to sources, the inclusion process will be based on important political figures instead of traditionally admitting political parties in the alliance.
