ISLAMABAD: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif and JUI-F chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman on Saturday held a telephonic conversation to discuss the prevailing political situation in the country, a private news channel reported.

During the telephone call, both leaders agreed to mount more pressure on the government inside and outside Parliament, the well-placed sources said.

Expressing their satisfaction over unity among the Opposition parties, the two leaders have decided to give the government a tough time.

“Giving the PTI-led government more time would be tantamount to injustice with the people and the country,” said Fazlur Rehman.

The two leaders agreed to move the Pakistan Democratic Movement’s protest plan forward and discussed the Opposition’s long march towards Islamabad. Talking about the long march, Nawaz Sharif assured Fazlur Rehman that his party will support the PDM’s decision.
