PML-N delegation meets Bilawal Bhutto to discuss APC preparations

Lahore: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) delegation called on Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari to discuss preparations for the upcoming All Parties Conference (APC) of opposition parties.

Three-member PML-N delegation comprising Ahsan Iqbal, Ayaz Sadiq and Khawaja Saad Rafique met Bilawal Bhutto Zardari at Bilawal House where PPP’s Qamar Zaman Kaira, Raja Pervaiz

Ashraf, Chaudhry Manzoor and Syed Hassan Murtaza were also present.

Leaders from both parties discussed the APC agenda which included coronavirus, inflation and flour, sugar and medicine scandal along with economic and financial situation of the country.

Furthermore, debate was held over possible amendments in the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) laws and vindictive actions by the government.

PPP suggested to bring a no-confidence motion against National Assembly Speaker Asad Qaiser.

Final recommendations will be shared with heads of other parties, who have already expressed their support to Bilawal Bhutto, following today’s meeting between PML-N and PPP.

It may be noted that Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Shehbaz Sharif had refused to meet Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto Zardari citing health issues.

Bilawal Bhutto, who is visiting Lahore, approached the PML-N president and had expressed his desire to meet him for holding a long-awaited multi-party conference of the opposition parties.

However, Shehbaz Sharif had refused to meet him citing his health issues, the sources had said.

It is pertinent to mention here that earlier on July 07, cracks started to appear between the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leaderships after the latter showed no interest in mounting pressure on the incumbent federal government.
