The Pakistan Democratic Party (PDP) was a political party in Pakistan, founded by Nawabzada Nasrullah Khan in June 1967.[2][3] Nawbzada Nasrullah Khan led the party until his death in 2003.[4][5] After Nawab's death, the party's leadership was later taken by his son Nawabzada Mansoor Ahmed Khan; the party later merged with Imran Khan's Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf in 2012.[5][6][7] It was a major rival during Pakistan's former president, Pervez Musharraf's presidency due to its affiliation with Alliance for Restoration of Democracy (ARD) led by its chief Nawbzada Nasrullah Khan along with PML-N and PPP which was created to campaign for Pakistan’s return to civilian rule after the 1999 military coup led by General Musharraf and was reported to include over a dozen political parties.[8][9]
