Nawaz Sharif sees Shehbaz best choice for PM slot in present circumstances

Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif said that Shehbaz Sharif is the best choice for the prime minister slot in the  present circumstances. 

Addressing the parliamentary meeting in Islamabad, the three-time premier said: “Hopefully the country will be out of the quagmire within two years. We got to stand united in the difficult times.”

Nawaz said: “Shehbaz Sharif has handled government affairs in a good way for the 16 months of his tenure. Today it is a big deal to steer the country out of the doldrums.”

Taking a swipe at the opponents, he said, “Those who brought him [Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) founder] into power are culprits.”

“If things had  remained in the right direction, the country would have already made its name on the list of G20 countries,” he added.

Earlier, the PML-N Parliamentary Board okayed the nomination of Shehbaz Sharif as PM.

The National Assembly (NA) Secretariat said that the maiden session of the lower house of the Parliament will meet at 10am tomorrow (Thursday).

“National Assembly (NA) session to begin at 10 am tomorrow [Thursday],” the notification read.
