Nawaz, Shehbaz agree to meet estranged PML-N Leaders

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif on Wednesday called on the party’s supreme leader and former prime minister Nawaz Sharif to discuss interim government and political developments in the country.

The meeting between the brothers was held at Nawaz’s residence in Jati Umra, where the two discussed the political situation and further activating party structure and expediting the election campaign for the upcoming polls.

The two leaders also agreed upon meeting the estranged PML-N leaders and address their reservations. The meeting is considered an important huddle of top PML-N leaders after PTI Chairman Imran Khan on Tuesday said that news of a big wicket falling in the political arena will be heard soon.

Speaking to reporters in Lahore, Khan had said that he would not respond to the query in detail and dodged a reporter who asked him whether he was talking about Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan. He said that after April 29, the PTI flood would take the shape of Tsunami plus. “One tsunami will be seen by the public and the other by PTI,” Khan had said.

Reports are also rife that the PTI chairman had either won PPP stalwart Aitezaz Ahsan or PML-N’s Chaudhry Nisar for his party, in view of his statement pertaining to big wicket.
