LAHORE - Ruling Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz is perturbed by the claims made by Pakistan Tehreek-i-Insaf (PTI) that many PML-N leaders have expressed willingness to join Imran Khan.
Nawaz Sharif during a party meeting in Raiwind had asked his younger brother to be vigilant with regard to defections from the party. “You should personally contact those in the party who have made up their mind to defect and redress their grievances.
This is a testing time and we should not turn this into a matter of egos,” Nawaz was quoted to have told Shahbaz.
The political leaders discussed how they could arrive at an understanding with Leader of the Opposition in the National Assembly Syed Khursheed Shah over the nomination of a caretaker prime minister.
“They also pledged to foil any attempt to delay the election under one pretext or another,” the PML-N leader said, adding the former prime minister had also directed PM Abbasi and Shahbaz Sharif to take their allies on board when it came to taking important decisions.
