Share:Pakistan’s founding party, the All India Muslim League, now Pakistan Muslim League (PML), stands as the country’s largest, yet most divided political entity. His death also coincided with the intervention of the military and civil bureaucracy and the fall of the country’s founding party altogether. All of a sudden, it became the Pakistan Muslim League from the All India Muslim League, having no challenge like the All India Congress,” said Akhtar Sandhu, a Lahore-based analyst who writes about politics and history. Sandhu dubbed the “inner weaknesses” and “lack of democracy” within the party as other key reasons behind its gradual fall. Another small faction PML (Zia) is led by a former federal minister, Ijaz-ul-Haq, son of former military ruler Gen. Zia-ul-Haq.
