ISLAMABAD: Former president Pervez Musharraf has tasked his old confidants Chaudhrys of Gujrat to transform his party into the third biggest political force.

The party leaders have started meetings with small parties to bring them under one flag. In this connection, former prime minister Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain would meet important political figures of the country.

Sources told Daily Times that All Pakistan Muslim League Chairman Pervez Musharraf has started preparations for the next general elections and in this connection he held a meeting with Shujaat, Chaudhry Pervez Elahi and Chaudhry Moonis Elahi to unite all the small political parties on a single platform.

A PML source said the Chaudhrys started ‘work’ and some important political families have showed their eagerness to contest the next general election under the leadership of Pervez Musharraf.

Seeking anonymity, an APML leader said Musharraf would make an important announcement in the coming days, which would turn the Pakistani politics to a new direction. “Some leaders of PTI and PPP are also in the telephonic contact with Pervez Musharraf and they have been invited to Dubai next week.”
