The People's National Congress,[a] abbreviated as PNC, is a political party in the Maldives founded in January 2019 and the current governing party.[3] The party's formation was spearheaded by former President Abdulla Yameen Abdul Gayoom, who had been in a dispute with the leadership of the Progressive Party of Maldives.[4]
The PNC was founded with support from Yameen by Fonadhoo MP Abdul Raheem Abdulla, and was also joined by Nilandhoo MP Abdulla Khaleel.[4][5] They then became president and vice president of the party, respectively, shortly after.
