As Khosas deliver googly, PML-N tries to woo rival politicians
Express News quoted sources as saying that Pakistan Muslim League – Quaid (PML-Q) MNA Sardar Jaffer Khan Leghari and independent MPA Amjad Farooq were invited by the PML-N leadership to Raiwind for talks regarding the upcoming elections.
The politicians will first reach Lahore to meet with Chief Minister Punjab Shahbaz Sharif.
Express News correspondent Tariq Ismail Qureshi reported that the politicians have been elected regularly from their constituency and might benefit the PML-N, if inducted.
Both of them were contacted by a close aide of Hamza Shahbaz.
Meanwhile, disgruntled senior leader of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz Sardar Zulfiqar Khan Khosa has softened his stance and is likely to welcome PML-N chief Nawaz Sharif at his residence, sources told The Express Tribune.
Khosa recently resigned from all political offices due to differences with Shahbaz Sharif, while his son, Dost Muhammad Khan Khosa, also tendered his resignation on Friday.
However, it turns out that the elder Khosa has been placated and has given up a list of demands which he was to present before Nawaz.
Sources within the party had said that the PML-N has constituted an “anti-Khosa committee,” which, instead of reconciling with the Khosas, gave them a cold shoulder, forcing Zulfiqar to soften his stance.

@Khurram Malik: it is not silent, see 13th august 2012 jalsa with imran khan threshing ppp
@ahmed: He does not know what he is doing, his master pasha last advice was attack Pml N so he is doing, his brain stopped working 17 years ago. Lost like a abendent child, IK has no plan, only big mouth. Hight of Islamic knowladge is take zaka, invest in offshore account for investment, deprive the treatment to the sick on those name he collect the zaka. Nawaz sharif is international political figure, IK is only ex player of cricket. No comparison of zaka cheat IK and nobel Nawaz sharif..
@Khurram Malik:
imran and his team are only targeting pmln and not any of the ppp coalition because they want to split punjab and take a share in punjab government. They are working agents for zardiari. imran's lot know very well that they've no chance of forming next government in islamabad, so they are now intent on destroying punjab in return for a share of power there, probably by forming next provincial govt with q league.
Zardari's been trying to do that for so long but as failed so imran's now doing his work in this province. In the last 6 months pti's targeted nawaz sharif's party for 80% of their attacks but very little against the parties sitting in the government. Even MQM is their friendly party now.
Case study of Khosa is an eye opener for those serving this family from decades.
@Asim Ali: This is what Pakistan is waiting for PML A, B, C, and D. Well bowled, sir. Salams
Wow...looks like social media team hired by Punjab govt. is making its presence felt...Come on PTI guys its breaking my heart. P.S. btw m a neutral observer
Another question to PML-N (Charles Sobhraj group): When were the bids invited for the motor way project? How many companies responded with their bids, and whose bid was the lowest? The fact of the matter is that there were no open tenders, and a sole company was awarded the contract at the cost of kickbacks.
Mian Sahib looks in a great form. Ready to face a bowler who has taken only one wicket in last twenty years and brags about taking two wickets with one ball.
Nawaz shrif has not control in punjab alone, how would win in other provinces?
The whole pml khandan trying to do their best to put on their happy face. Pmln is dead in the water if the sheeple here just realize.
@Faheem: and what have sharif family have done for anyone except plundering our wealth? motor way? oh yea he built motor way but he took 160 million dollars bribe as well. and what about the british author that accused NOORA Sharif for more then 400 millions? boo you.
NS, bring back looted millions of pounds from UK, and I will vote for PMLN.
pml means pakistan mia leaque. plz vote for it to support mia family and their business and help them to transfer pakistani people money to london..
plz vote if u love miaaaaaaaaaaa jeeee.
@poora noora: Hey regarding to mauling of the names of the parties i think you should tell Imran Khan that in the politics of Punjab calling names and mauling party names is considered a bad thing and it is a message to Urban Fake Punjabis that People in villages took notice of these things in a sensitive manner. Calling Nawaz as Ganga by PTI supporters and calling PMLN as Noora is a Profane thing in the traditions of Punjab's Politics. Imran Khan since arrived here in Punjab so tell him to learn some manners as well. Also secondly when Imran Khan in every Protest will say MIan Sahib Mian Sahaaab so what you will expect. Imran Is a good ploy against PMLN but will fail miserably and PPP and its allies will surely see a defeat in the coming elections.
Khurram Malik why is PML N silent about MQM ANP PPP PML Q???? why is PML N targetting PTI only?
@SA: Can I IK first call the g'tee so the USD 3mio comes to Pakistan???
@Khurram Malik: Same reason why PML-N is targeting PTI only.
@Omer ali: Musharraf said the same thing what PTI is saying that PMLN is history but Musharraf and his party PMLQ became history and PMLN fight back and this time PMLN will emerge as the real power in Punjab.
PML(N) drowning ship
Why PTI is silent about MQM, Anp, ppp and pmlq????? Why PTI is targetting PMLN only?

@saa: PML N will win next elections with God help
ISI used to be PML-N's god, and it is not quite happy with its leaders. On the other hand, given its dismal performance, the people are not happy with them either. So, one wonders who will be helping them this time? Or is CJ their new god now?
Sardar zulfiqar Khosa is gentleman, party leaders respect him a lot, he had life tome contribution to the party and Punjab we respect him for that.
Forget the news people. The wicket keeper made my day. rofl
Get ready to face the bowler : Imran Khan And remember, he is not going to deliver googlies, but BOUNCERS
he may join PTI because PMLN has started wooing their rival in this constituency. thanks
you people worring too much , PML N will win next elections with God help
Another nail in PMLN's coffin!
Khosas are bargaining for the next elections by threatening PMLN. They did nothing for their people, no considerable development work in their constituencies, and now wants more tickets for their family. Boo!
Desperation in the PML ranks. Soon it will become PML A, B, C & D
If he has time to play cricket, I'm sure he has time to answer those 11 questions :)
