Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto and co-chairman Asif Ali Zardari met Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President, and Leader of the Opposition in National Assembly, Shehbaz Sharif in Lahore.

Addressing a press conference along with Bilawal and other opposition leaders, Shehbaz said that all political parties are united over the issue of the current government's removal.

Shehbaz, who is also the Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly, said that PPP's leadership has shared its recommendations to formulate a joint strategy against the government. "These suggestions will be discussed at the PDM's platform in the coming days," he said.

Without revealing the suggestions shared by the PPP leadership, Shehbaz said that all options, including the no-confidence motion, will be considered.

However, he didn't explain if the PPP will become part of the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) again.

Meanwhile, Bilawal said that his party will consider all options to get rid of the PTI's government.

"Political parties have differences of opinions, but consensus can be developed through dialogue and close coordination," he said.

"Our [opposition] close working relationship and coordination will be a threat to the government."

He appreciated Shehbaz by saying that the "leader of the opposition has been working tirelessly to bring together opposition parties and deserves credit for it."

Earlier, the PPP leaders arrived at Shehbaz's Model Town residence and were greeted by him, PML-N Vice President Maryam Nawaz, and Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly Hamza Shehbaz.

In a tweet, the PML-N said that the PPP leaders met at the Model Town residence of Shehbaz Sharif.

"Sharif along with PML-N Vice-President Maryam Nawaz and Hamza Shehbaz received the former president and Bilawal," the statement added. "The two PPP leaders were invited by Shehbaz."

The leadership of the country's two main opposition parties discussed the political situation in the country in a meeting which was also attended by Hamza Shehbaz, PML-N Information Secretary Marriyum Aurangzeb, PML-N leader Saad Rafique, PPP Punjab General Secretary Hassan Murtaza and the PPP's Rukhsana Bangash.

According to an earlier report in Dawn, Shehbaz had contacted Bilawal on Friday to invite him for lunch at his residence, with party insiders suggesting that the meeting was being arranged at Nawaz Sharif's behest. They claimed that Nawaz issued Nawaz's directive followed multiple attempts by the PPP requesting the same.

The main agenda of the meeting was believed to be the tabling of a no-confidence motion for in-house change, both in the National and in Punjab Assembly.
