LAHORE: The Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) will not form an alliance with any political party for the next general elections, sources revealed to Geo News on Thursday.

The decision was taken by PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari after consulting with the senior leadership of the party. 

Sources added that the PPP will field a candidate in every constituency.

A decision was also taken to answer to Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf Chairman Imran Khan in the same language he uses, according to the sources.

The PPP will also launch a public mobilisation drive in Punjab and Sindh, it was decided by the party chairman. 


Note: The Pakistan Peoples Party Media Cell operating out of Bilawal House issued a clarification on Friday, December 29 stating that while "Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari had endorsed the idea in [the] CEC meeting for making no alliance with any party but it was decided in CEC that final decision in this regard will be taken closer to the general elections."
