PML-N in completely isolated

Mian Nawaz Sharif’s Pakistan Muslim League is in deep trouble. Its performance during the recent AJK elections has been disappointing. The PML-N also lost a number of by-elections to the PPP in its own home turf, Punjab. The PML-N has little or no representation or a worthwhile presence in Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan. It hardly exists in the second largest province of the country, Sindh. Even in the Saraiki belt, the party is unlikely to make any noticeable gains in the forthcoming national elections. In a nutshell, the PML-N now stands completely isolated as a central Punjab-centric regional political party.
