Nawaz will not meet Pagara: Khawaja Asif

Khawaja Asif says there is no scheduled meeting of PML-N Chief with Pir Pagara regarding unification of PML factions.

SIALKOT: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Central Leader & MNA Khawaja Muhammad Asif has said that there was no scheduled meeting of PML-N Chief Mian Nawaz Sharif with Pir Pagara regarding the unification of all the factions of Pakistan Muslim League (PML).

Talking to newsmen here Monday Khawaja Asif said that PML-N has also not yet done any mutual consultation for this meeting. He said that the Sharifs have never ignored their sincere workers due to which the PML-N has very deep roots in the masses.

Contrary to these statements of some party members ruling out any alliance with smaller factions of the Muslim League, sources close to Nawaz Sharif told The Express Tribune that he has not rejected the idea outright but wants to go slow and finalise things just before the next elections.

Asif said that the incumbent government of the PPP was responsible for all the internal and external dangers and crisis being faced by the country.

He said that the PML-N has sacrificed a lot for the freedom of the supreme judiciary in the country, adding that the rulers were now trying to make the country's judiciary their slave.
