Prime Minister-designate PML-N President Nawaz Sharif has convened a meeting of his close aides and experts on Wednesday (today) to discuss ways and means to overcome power crisis in the country.
The meeting, which will be held prior to his election as the prime minister, will be attended by Ishaq Dar, Khawaja Asif, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi and other experts and senior officials.
Sources said in his maiden speech in the National Assembly after being elected as prime minister, Nawaz would announce various short- and medium-term measures to minimise load shedding.
They said the prime minister was also likely to announce a programme for the provision of jobs to the employed youth.
