PML-N leader Ishaq Dar has stated that the plan to form a government with the PPP and MQM-P was “still on” as he pointed out that there was no other choice available to them.

Speaking to Geo News, the former finance minister said the committees of both political parties had held four rounds of meetings so far but nothing was finalised as yet.

“None of the committee members of both parties will make anything public till it isn’t final,” Dar added. “I receive calls on a daily basis to find out about the progress but I am morally bound to not say anything till it’s finalised.”

The PML-N leader termed Bilawal’s revelations of a power-sharing formula merely a fraction of the dialogue held between the two parties so far.

“I don’t think it’s appropriate to divulge any more detail about this,” he said. “Bilawal made the time-sharing formula public but that was just one aspect and there can be more formulas.”
