Islamabad, Aug. 21 : After a long internal conflict, the Pakistan Muslim League-Quaid (PML-Q) has broken apart with the so called `like minded group' parting away.

Declaring the last month's party elections `null and void', the general council unanimously passed a resolution appointing Hamid Nasir Chattha as chairman, Salim Saifullah Khan as president and Humayun Akhtar Khan the secretary general of the dissident group.

Instead of announcing a separate party or a new faction, the group said it was the `real PML-Q' and that the leadership elected last month was `illegitimate', the Daily Times reports.

Meanwhile, PML-Q Information Secretary Kamil Ali Agha said his party would not support any move against former President General Pervez Musharraf.

Talking to media persons in a press conference in Lahore, Agha said the PML-Q would not support any anti-Musharraf campaign.

"The party has after all worked with him for five years, and re-elected him as president. Courtesy demands the PML-Q avoids being part of his trial, even verbal," he said. (ANI)
