ISLAMABAD: Former Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) chief Gen Hamid Gul met with Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) president Nawaz Sharif in Islamabad on Monday, Express News reported.

Nawaz Sharif and the PML-N have been busy forming political alliances ahead of next year’s general elections.

Gul is also one of the founding members of the religio-political Difa-e-Pakistan Council (Defence of Pakistan), a group which claims itself to be working for the protection of Pakistan. The DPC has on its roster the likes of Jamatud Dawa chief Hafiz Saeed and Ahle-Sunnat wal Jamaat's Malik Ishaq.

Gul has been vocal against improving ties with India.

In late October, Pakistan Muslim League-Zia (PML-Z) chief Ijazul Haq had also announced he would join the PML-N.
