Pakistan election: Imran Khan's rivals PML-N and PPP reach deal to form government
Mr Bhutto's PPP said it would help Mr Sharif's PML-N elect a prime minister after last week's election.
The two parties were previously in a coalition that ousted Imran Khan from power in 2022.
...
The results - in which independents backed by the PTI took 93 out of 266 directly elected seats - had left voters uncertain about which parties would form the next government.
Mr Sharif's PML-N won 75 seats while Mr Bhutto's PPP came third with 54 seats.
