The '''Pakistan Peoples Muslim League''' ('''PPML'''), formerly known as the '''Pakistan Muslim League (Like-Minded)'''<ref name="name change"/> and abbreviated as '''PML (LM)''', was a [[List of political parties in Pakistan|political party]] in [[Pakistan]] led by former [[Chief Minister of Sindh]] [[Arbab Ghulam Rahim]].<ref>[http://www.onlinenews.com.pk/details.php?id=189131 Haroon Akhtar named PML-LM SVP] {{webarchive|url=https://archive.today/20120906083453/http://www.onlinenews.com.pk/details.php?id=189131 |date=2012-09-06 }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/islamabad/10-Feb-2012/pml-lm-to-support-20th-amend-bill |title=PML LM to support 20th Amend Bill |access-date=2012-02-15 |archive-date=2012-02-11 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120211151017/http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/islamabad/10-Feb-2012/pml-lm-to-support-20th-amend-bill |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/islamabad/12-Feb-2012/likeminded-elects-chattha-chairman-rahim-president |title=Likeminded elects Chattha chairman, Rahim president |access-date=2012-02-15 |archive-date=2013-09-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130921235404/http://www.nation.com.pk/pakistan-news-newspaper-daily-english-online/islamabad/12-Feb-2012/likeminded-elects-chattha-chairman-rahim-president |url-status=dead }}</ref> The party was a [[Muslim League Schisms|breakaway faction]] of the [[Pakistan Muslim League (Q)]].<ref>[http://tribune.com.pk/story/335278/under-new-management-arbab-elected-new-pml-q-likeminded-president/ Under new management: Arbab elected new PML-Q likeminded president]</ref> It emerged in 2009 after many members of the Pakistan Muslim League (Q) became disillusioned by the questionable decisions of the Chaudhry's of Gujrat who were alleged to be making important decisions without consulting any of the senior party members and making the party an undemocratic "family party." In May 2013, the party merged with the [[Pakistan Muslim League (N)]].<ref name="merger">{{cite news|url=http://tribune.com.pk/story/554612/arbab-ghulam-rahims-ppml-merges-with-pml-n/|title=Arbab Ghulam Rahim's PPML merges with PML-N|work=The Express Tribune|date=26 May 2013|accessdate=26 May 2013}}</ref>

Many PML (Q) heavyweights including [[Arbab Ghulam Rahim]], [[Hamid Nasir Chattha]], [[Khurshid Mahmud Kasuri]], [[Humayun Akhtar Khan]], Haroon Akhtar Khan, [[Salim Saifullah Khan]], [[Humayun Saifullah Khan]], [[Gohar Ayub Khan]], [[Omar Ayub Khan]], [[Kashmala Tariq]], Ata Muhammad Maneka and many other like-minded politicians got together to form what they believed was the legitimate version of the PML (Q). This created a huge vacuum in the original PML (Q) and in 2011, more than half of its members in the Punjab Assembly decided to ditch their original party and join hands with the PML (N) to support [[Chief Minister of Punjab, Pakistan|Chief Minister]] [[Shahbaz Sharif]] when the Pakistan Peoples Party was kicked out of the Punjab Government. In 2010 the Likeminded faction began its effort to unite factions of the Muslim League under one umbrella and managed to create an electoral alliance known as the Muttahida Muslim League which included [[Sheikh Rasheed Ahmed]] of [[Awami Muslim League (Pakistan)|Awami Muslim League]], Makhdoom Syed Ahmad Mehmood of [[Pakistan Muslim League (F)|Pakistan Muslim League (Functional)]], and Ijaz-ul-Haq of [[Pakistan Muslim League (Z)|Pakistan Muslim League (Zia)]]. In May 2012 the Likeminded Group officially entered into an electoral alliance with Pakistan Muslim League (N) in a bid to unite all Muslim League factions and defeat opposing parties such as [[Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf|PTI]] and the ruling coalition of [[Pakistan Peoples Party|PPP]] and [[Pakistan Muslim League (Q)|PML (Q)]].

In March 2009, Pakistan Muslim League (Like-Minded) renamed as Pakistan Peoples Muslim League<ref name="name change">{{Cite web|url=http://dawn.com/2013/03/28/arbab-renames-his-party-as-peoples-muslim-league/|title = Arbab renames his party as Peoples Muslim League|date = 28 March 2013}}</ref> but it eventually ceased to exist as it merged with [[Pakistan Muslim League (N)]] in May 2013.<ref name="merger"/>
