ATTOCK: In a major blow to the Tehreek-e-Labbaik Pakistan (TLP), two party leaders announced joining the Pakistan People\u2019s Party (PPP) on Wednesday, ARY News reported.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The two leaders, who are ticket holders for TLP, made the formal announcement of their departure after meeting with PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari.<\/p>\n

This development is seen as a major setback for TLP in two provincial constituencies within NA-50 Attock-II.<\/p>\n

Ticket holders Malik Amanat from PP-4 and Syed Atif Shah from PP-5 leaders parted ways with the TLP, joining the PPP along with colleagues.<\/p>\n

Both TLP leaders called on Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari during which they made the formal announcement. Bilawal Bhutto Zardari welcomed all on joining PPP.<\/p>\n

Governor Punjab Sardar Saleem Hayat Khan was also present on this occasion.<\/p>\n

Last month, Pakistan People\u2019s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari declined a meeting with Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, despite a request from the federal government following his criticism.<\/p>\n

After Bilawal\u2019s remarks, the government extended an offer for a meeting, which was promptly rejected.<\/p>\n

Bilawal explained that his refusal was not based on personal issues with the government, but rather stemmed from the concerns of his voters and provincial governments.<\/p>\n

Bilawal Bhutto emphasized that the PPP had grievances with the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) over its handling of administrative matters in Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa (KP).<\/p>\n

The former foreign minister, Bilawal Bhutto noted that the PML-N had been sidelining PPP in the administrative affairs of these provinces, despite an earlier agreement that the PPP would be a partner in managing the administrative matters in both Punjab and KP.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
