Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) and the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F), erstwhile rivals in the political arena, seem to be on the brink of burying the hatchet and joining hands against the government, according to sources on Saturday.
Sources revealed that the former prime minister and PTI founder Imran Khan has given his word to address the concerns of JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman, while a three-member committee has been formed and tasked with ironing out differences between the two parties.
The message from the former prime minister has been relayed to Fazl, and if all goes well, both leaders are poised to sign the alliance agreement, the sources further revealed.
It is noteworthy that speculations of a potential alliance between these former adversaries, which have long been at loggerheads, have been rife in the media for some time now, especially in the wake of recent general elections.
