Khursheed Shah recommended names of Justice Sardar Muhammad Raza and Justice (retd) Rana Bhagwandas.
A response letter containing the names will be forwarded to Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on Tuesday.
On Thursday, the opposition leader had said that nominations for the post of chairman NAB would be forwarded to the government once the prime minister returns from China.
Nawaz had earlier recommended two names – Justice Rehmat Hussain Jaffery and former federal secretary Khwaja Zahiruddin Ahmed – as suitable replacements for Admiral (retd) Fasih Bukhari who was removed from his post on Supreme Court’s directives.
The Supreme Court had earlier expressed displeasure over the non-appointment of NAB chief despite court orders.
Admiral Bokhari was removed on May 29 and his appointment was declared illegal by the apex court.
