Syed Saddiq, when contacted, however, said he was not in a position to divulge further details on the new party and whether it would be aligned to Opposition pact, Pakatan Harapan.

"But what I can tell you is that what happened last night is that seven of us in the photos will be the founding members of the party. "And there has been a consensus among us to set up the party and submit its registration forms to RoS.

That's what we can disclose as of now," he said.
