'Like-minded Group' Break Away
Recently, a growing rift within the leadership of the party has emerged another faction within the ambit of the Muslim League calling themselves the 'Like-minded' bloc, who are seriously opposed to the recent Chaudhry's of Gujrat leadership bid.
Even though its early days for this new faction, they have announced that Hamid Nasir Chattha would be the Chairman, Salim Saifullah the President, and Humayun Akhtar Khan the Secretary General. Other prominent leaders to join this parallel set-up amongst others are (former Foreign Ministers) Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri (appointed as Chairman Steering Committee) and Gohar Ayub Khan. Additional prominent leaders include Kashmala Tariq as well. A meeting of the group was held in August 2009 in Peshawar by members including Salim Saifullah Khan, Hamid Nasir Chattha, Humayun Akhtar Khan, Gohar Ayub Khan, Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri, Muhammad Ali Durrani, Sumera Malik, Lala Nisar, Kashmala Tariq, Iqbal Dar and Omar Ayub Khan.
In February 2010, the mainstream PML-Q was further effected by the reisgnation of Muhammad Ijaz-ul-Haq, and the revival of his Pakistan Muslim League (Z) party.
