A major opposition alliance is being formed in Pakistan with the intention of overthrowing the current coalition government led by Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. This alliance plans to achieve its goal by organizing large-scale rallies, holding protest sit-ins, and creating a united front against the government.
Ever since the February 8 elections, the current government has been on shaky ground due to the prevailing political instability in the country. In order to strengthen their position, the top leadership of Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI), the largest opposition party in the National Assembly, has been holding crucial meetings with the Sunni Ittehad Council and the Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam Fazl.
The opposition is exerting pressure on the government to call for early elections in the country. Interestingly, Maulana Fazlur Rehman, the leader of JUI-F, was previously the Chairman of the Pakistan Democratic Movement, an opposition coalition that joined forces against the former ruling government of Prime Minister Imran Khan and succeeded in ousting him through a no-confidence vote in the parliament.
Fazlur Rehman has accused PTI and Imran Khan of receiving funding from India and Israel. He has also alleged that the party leaders are working as foreign agents, causing chaos and instability in Pakistan. In response, PTI and Imran Khan have referred to Fazlur Rehman as "diesel" and "maulana diesel" in various political rallies and campaigns in the past. However, it seems that both sides have put aside their differences and united against the ruling government.
Experts believe that a stronger opposition alliance can significantly challenge the Sharif government, which is already facing severe criticism for alleged manipulation and rigging in the February elections. Sources have revealed that the opposition parties, including PTI and JUI-F, are preparing to launch an anti-government campaign through rallies, protests, and marches towards the capital city of Islamabad.
It is believed that Imran Khan has also instructed his party leadership to organize protest rallies in different parts of the country. As the opposition parties join forces, the top leadership of PTI, including Imran Khan, is also getting some relief in their ongoing legal battles. Khan has urged his party leaders, who have been in hiding, to come forward and participate in discussions on forming an opposition alliance.
Experts say that the current situation and the ongoing dispute between the country's judiciary and establishment are working in Khan's favor.
