Pir Pagara confirmed to be meeting Nawaz Sharif
It has been learnt that PML-F leader Pir Pagara will be holding a meeting with PML-N Chief Nawaz Sharif at Raiwind.
The leader of Pakistan Muslim League-Functional (PML-F) Pir Pagara will be holding a meeting with the Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) Chief Nawaz Sharif, it has been learnt.
The date and time of the meeting will be announced after Nawaz Sharif's return from London. Sources say the proposal for the meeting was given by Pir Pagara himself. The meeting will be held in Raiwind.
Earlier this month Pagara said he will go to Lahore to invite Nawaz Sharif to the merger of all the factions of Pakistan Muslim League. Pagara had also said that even though the PML-N Chief has been “arrogant” in the past, he will still be extended an invitation to join the party.
Earlier this month, the Awami Muslim League President Sheikh Rashid Ahmed said that the final phase of unifying all Muslim Leagues, would be initiated soon.
He was referring to the merger last month of two factions of the Pakistan Muslim League, one led by Chaudhry Shujaat Hussein and the other led by Pir Pagara under the banner of the All Pakistan Muslim League, which is incidentally also the name of former president Pervez Musharraf’s recently launched party. The unified entity had installed Pir Sahib Pagara in the role of leader.
Sources point out that the confirmation of the meeting does not mean that the PML-N has already agreed to join the Pagara's party.
