LONDON (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) president and opposition leaders in the National Assembly Shahbaz Sharif will hold a consultative meeting with the delegation of senior PML-N leaders in London today (Friday), Dunya News reported.
Sources said that the PML-N delegation will seek the leadership’s guidance on a number of parliamentary issues including amendment in Army act for an extension in the army chief’s tenure and the appointment of Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) members.
Sources further said that final decision regarding the law for extending the army chief’s tenure will be made by former prime minister and PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif.
On the other hand, government and opposition are facing a deadlock over the appointments of ECP members, as both sides have failed to reach a consensus on the matter.
