PML-Q, PTI No Longer Allies, Says Maulana Fazl

Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Falzur Rehman has said that the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) was not allies with the ruling party anymore.

While speaking to a media outlet on Sunday, Fazl claimed that following his meeting with PML-Q leader Pervaiz Elahi, the latter had been convinced of JUI-F's stance.

The JUI-F chief also put to rest speculations that a deal had occurred between his party and the government, adding that when the PML-Q chief had stated that the sit-in ended after both sides reached an agreement, he was talking from his own point of view.

He added, "No deal between us and the government was reached either through Elahi or someone else.” 

Moreover, Maulana Fazlur Rehman said that he would not end his protest movement until the prime minister resigns.

“He will not be the prime minister by next year. I cannot tell you how that will happen but we are determined to protest until we get his resignation,” he stated.

Fazl also negated the idea that his sit-in had ended in failure. He stated that under Plan-B, the party would put more pressure on the government.
