LAHORE: Estranged Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leader Aleem Khan arrived in London on Wednesday to meet PTI leader Jahangir Tareen and PMLN supremo Nawaz Sharif, according to sources.
The sources privy to the development said Aleem will discuss the future course of action with Tareen for the group as the opposition has submitted the no-confidence motion. Sources said that in case Punjab Chief Minister Usman Bazdar decides to resign, the PMLN and the Aleem Khan group of the PTI may field a joint candidate.
The sources further said that the Tareen-Aleem group of the PTI may not merge with any party, for now, adding that the two leaders may become part of a larger political alliance in the next general elections.
