In 1991, PAT and Tehrik-e-Nifas-e-Fiqh-e-Jafria (Moosavi Faction) signed a 'Communique of Unity' to promote social and religious harmony.

Elections 1990 PAT fielded candidates throughout the country in the general elections held one year soon after its establishment. The party could not win any seat in these elections but the polls served as a means for promotion of its message across the country. Elections 1993 The PAT leadership tried to unite religious and political leadership before 1993 elections so that an alternative leadership could be offered to the nation. However, all political forces joined various political alliances set up by the invisible hands. In view of sharp political divide, the General Council of PAT concluded after thorough deliberations that the prevalent electoral system would not be able to serve as a bridge to reach the destination of revolution. It thus decided to boycott political process and spread awareness among the masses who are caught in clutches of capitalism and feudalism. PAT launched mass educational project at the national level under which hundreds of educational institutions were set up.
