"We have struck seat-adjustment deal with PPP in Mansehra and Torghar districts to secure maximum seats there," Maulana Saeed Abdullah, the information secretary of the MMA, told reporters on Monday. The modalities for the alliance were finalised at a meeting, attended by PPP divisional president Syed Ahmad Hussain Shah, MMA president Syed Hidayatullah Shah and other leaders.
Saeed Abdullah said the PPP aspirant and former provincial minister Shuja Salim Khan withdrew his nomination papers to support MMA aspirant Mufti Kifayatullah and in response the MMA withdrew nomination papers of its contender Attaullah in support of PPP contender Syed Ahmad Hussain Shah.
He said the PPP would support MMA contender Maulana Nasir Mehmood in PK-33.

"We expect securing seats of two national and six provincialassembly constituencies in the two districts as we want to defeat Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz at any cost," he added.
