According to the Human Rights Watch report Behind the Red Line: Political Repression in Sudan, the Democratic Unionist Party was formed when the National Unionist Party merged with the People's Democratic Party (1996, 170). However, no references to a National Democratic Unionist Party (NDUP), Democratic Union Alliance (DUA), Sudanese Union Democratic Party (SUDP) or a Sudan National Democratic Alliance (SNDA) could be found among the sources consulted by the Research Directorate.
