LAHORE - Pakistan People's Party seems to have lost patience with the PML-N, as it has finally decided to form its own cabinet by the end of this month if the PML-N sticks to its stance and did not rejoin the federal government within next 25 days. "Important cabinet slots cannot be left vacant for too long. The PPP ministers are overburdened and are unable to concentrate on their own ministries because they are also having additional charge of the ministries left by the PML-N ministers", a highly placed PPP source told The Nation on Saturday. The source further said that PPP leadership was now convinced that PML-N should not be given too much time to take a decision regarding re-joining of the federal cabinet. However, he added, the PPP leadership would make a last ditch effort to induce Nawaz party to be part of the Government, and if it did not respond positively, the PPP would have its own course and form its own cabinet. He said that apart from the fact that PPP was finding it hard to run government affairs efficiently with a handful of ministers, party leadership was also under tremendous pressure from those party men who were waiting in the wings to be part of the cabinet if the PML-N was not interested to join the government at the Centre. The upcoming meeting between PPP chief Asif Ali Zardari and PML-N Quaid Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif is stated to be crucial in this regard. Many within the PPPP believe that it would be a 'make -or-break meeting' between the two party heads in this particular context. The two leaders are scheduled to meet soon, most probably by the end of next week to decide the fate of the coalition. Asif Zardari and Mian Nawaz Sharif are in London at the moment and there is a possibility that they may decide to meet there in a couple of days, said a source. The PPP leadership, however, is confident that PML-N would continue to support the PPP-led government in the Centre in line with Charter of Democracy signed in London in 2006. They also believe that PPP would remain part of the Punjab Government irrespective of whether or not the PML-N remained part of the Federal Government. Earlier, the PML-N ministers quit the federal cabinet on May 13 in line with party stance that PML-N would not remain part of federal government if the deposed judges are not restored as per Murree Declaration signed by the two parties on March 8, 2008. It proved to be a very shortest-lived coalition in country's political history as PML-N ministers occupied their offices for only 43 days. The PML-N leaders had been maintaining since February 18 polls, that their party had contested general election on the issue of reinstatement of judges and joined the PPP-led coalition government on the sole condition that judges will be reinstated in the light of Murree Declaration. But the PPP, on the other hand, has been pressing the PML-N leaders hard to re-consider their decision and don't link it to reinstatement of deposed judges, which, it says, would be done at an appropriate time through a constitutional package to be presented in the parliament after evolving consensus of all coalition partners.
