Reports of Nawaz Sharif's return makes govt sleepless

LAHORE (Dunya News) – Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) senior leader and former interior minister Ahsan Iqbal said on Saturday that the news of former prime minister Nawaz Sharif’s return has deprived the rulers of their sleep.

Addressing a function in Lahore on Saturday, he said that Pakistan was surrounded by major crises and Pakistan wouldn’t have been made if Pakistan Tehreek was based on self-interest but thousands of workers selflessly sacrificed for Pakistan.

Regarding country’s political situation, the PML-N senior leader said that talks were underway between the opposition and the government and the Election Commission will play an important role in the local body and general elections.

Iqbal went on to say that the government should complete the talks as soon as possible so that appointments can be made with consensus and the opposition will not create any deadlock. The posts are vacant as the prime minister has not spoken to Shahbaz Sharif.
