GUJRAT: Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain has proposed to hold general elections across the country, announced Chaudhry Salik Hussain, yesterday.

In a statement, federal minister Chaudhry Salik Hussain said that the PML-Q president has apprised Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) co-Chairman Asif Ali Zardari and Prime Minister (PM) Shehbaz Sharif of his proposal to hold general elections.

“It has been decided that joint candidates of PDM [Pakistan Democratic Movement] will be fielded across the country,” he said, adding that PML-Q will not merge with PPP or PML-N.
