No Rifts Between PDM Parties, Claims Zardari

No Rifts Between PDM Parties, Claims Zardari
In an effort to refute reports of a dispute among Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) parties over bringing a no-confidence motion against the ruling Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), on Sunday, co-President Asif Ali Zardari of the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) said that all options were still on the table, including a no-confidence motion, resignations, a long march and even a nationwide wheel-jam strike.

Zardari dismissed speculations about a split between his party and the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) during a telephone conversation with PPP Punjab chief Chaudhry Manzoor, adding that the PDM was unified and would "attack" the PTI-led government from all sides.

Reports of disagreements between the two parties emerged after PML-Ahsan N's Iqbal disagreed with the suggestion of PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to table a no-confidence motion in parliament instead of holding nationwide protest rallies to oust the ruling party from power.
