PML-N names Hamza Shehbaz for Punjab CM slot

F.P. Report

LAHORE: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party nominated Hamza Shehbaz for the slot of Punjab Chief Minister slot at a parliamentary meeting.

PML-N also nominated Gujranwala MPA-elect Chaudhry Iqbal for the slot of provincial assembly speaker.

It may be mentioned here that the Punjab governor has summoned first session of the provincial assembly on Wednesday at 10am. Rana Iqbal will chair the inaugural session.

Several members of the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) party expressed displeasure as their lawmakers did not record protests during the oath-taking ceremony of the revamped National Assembly.

They voiced their concerns on the election campaign and said key leaders focused on their respective constituencies instead of working collectively.

One female member expressed her anger and said the party did not devise a sound strategy to respond to the Nawaz Sharif issue. She said PML-N did not show solidarity with the incarcerated former premier and urged an effective movement to tackle the situation.

Other participants voiced reservations over PML-N’s alleged failure to convince independent candidates to join party ranks after election and said it was a matter of concern as they had been ruling Punjab for the past many years.

They praised Khursheed Shah’s role as opposition leader in the National Assembly and expressed the hope that Shehbaz Sharif would emerge as an effective opposition figure.
