The sources say the Fort and other historical places will be closed for the general public upon the arrival of Nawaz Sharif.
Earlier, the PML-N has tightened the party discipline before the arrival of party supremo Nawaz Sharif on Oct 21 and issued guidelines in this regard.
The party sources said it had been made clear to the leaders to use their right of criticism about the party decisions in the meetings and avoid discussing any controversial point of view on the social media platforms such as Facebook and X. "Failure to comply can invite dire consequences against the violators."
The sources said the leaders violating the guidelines would be served showcause notices and face further action in the results.
The leaders criticising the party on the social platforms would be denied party tickets, the sources said, adding that the top leadership had issued instructions in this regard.
