PHOTO: ONLINE ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) appeared to be in tatters on Tuesday because of serious differences on the issue of lawmakers’ resignations from assemblies, which forced it to postpone the scheduled long march against the government. The PDM summit meeting chaired by its President Maulana Fazlur Rehman ended without taking any decision on major issues as leaders engaged themselves in heated exchanges over resignations, the Senate elections, and on the question of who to nominate as leader of opposition in the upper house of parliament.
