President Asif Ali Zardari has convened a meeting of PPP Punjab at the president camp office Bilawal House in Karachi today (Friday). After attending a conference in Istanbul, Zardari arrived late Wednesday night in Karachi, where he plans to hold meetings with PPP leaders and government officials to review the political and post-flood situation of the country.
Sources said that the PPP leaders of Punjab will brief the president about the political situation following the two massive rallies organised by Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Tehrik-e-Insaf.
Sources further said that President Zardari will ask the Punjab leadership of the party to form a counter-strategy against the activities of PML-N and other forces in the province.
“There are chances that the president may issue directives to either organise a rally or a public meeting to show their political strength in the province,” party sources said.
The Bilawal House spokesperson said that the president always holds such routine meetings with party officials.

Lets somebody impose two party system in pakistan..
Khan, PPP has 106 out of 370 provincial seats in the punjab assembly, so how exactly is it a joke?
@ Khan
I think , It would good for Pakistani politics if PPP, PML-n and off course pti also hold more rallies.
People of Pakistan should see, listen all of stories and then make a their mind about who is the right person they think to vote for.
"President Zardari will ask the Punjab leadership of the party to form a counter-strategy against the activities of PML-N and other forces in the province."
Typical conflict of interest in the parliamentary system when the president is also ruling party chief.
So finally PPP also wake up.
PPP in Punjab? goog joke!!
