Last week, PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari warned that the party would withdraw its support for the PML-N-led government until its concerns over the Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK) elections were addressed. He also ruled out support for the government’s proposed legislation in the Senate and National Assembly (NA), saying no party member would vote on bills until the PPP’s unresolved grievances were addressed.

PPP also accused the PML-N of widespread electoral rigging in the AJK and announced that the party would approach the courts seeking investigations into the alleged irregularities. However, PML-N dismissed the PPP allegations of irregularities as "baseless", saying the election results reflected the confidence reposed in the PML-N by the people.
