      <title>PML-N to stay out of AJK govt formation, says Farooq Haider</title>
      <link>https://english.aaj.tv/news/330441364/pml-n-to-stay-out-of-ajk-govt-formation-says-farooq-haider</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Former prime minister of Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Azad Jammu and Kashmir parliamentary leader Raja Farooq Haider has categorically announced that his party will not participate in any process of government formation in the region.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Raja Farooq Haider said the PML-N parliamentary party had already decided to sit on the opposition benches.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;He reaffirmed that the party stood firmly by this decision, leaving no room for any change.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Meanwhile, political activities have intensified in Azad Kashmir over the formation of a new government.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to sources, President Asif Ali Zardari contacted Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif by phone to take him into confidence over the Pakistan Peoples Party’s (PPP) decisions regarding government formation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The sources added that Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has tasked the PML-N’s AJK Affairs Committee with holding talks with the PPP.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The committee includes Federal Ministers Ahsan Iqbal, Rana Sanaullah, and Amir Muqam.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Consultations between the committee and the PML-N leadership in Azad Kashmir are underway to reach a consensus on the party’s future course of action, the sources said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Political analysts believe the PML-N remains committed to staying in opposition, while the PPP is in contact with other parties and independent lawmakers to form the next government.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Significant political developments are expected in Azad Kashmir in the coming days.&lt;/p&gt;
