Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Chief Organiser Maryam Nawaz reiterated on Thursday that former prime minister Nawaz Sharif will take the country out of the quagmire.

Ms Nawaz presided over the party meeting held at Jati Umra. During the meeting, matters in line with the return of Nawaz Sharif to the country were underscored. She made it clear that the PML-N supremo would be welcomed overwhelmingly upon his return.

She said, “Nawaz Sharif will address all the problems faced by the masses in line with inflation and unemployment.”

Prominent among those who attended the meeting were Rana Sanaullah, Pervaiz Rasheed, Marriyum Aurangzeb, Bilal Kayani, Saif ul Malook Khokhar, Khawaja Saad Rafique, Malik Afzal Khokhar, Ali Pervaiz Malik, and Shaista Pervaiz Malik.

– Premier for fourth time –

PML-N senior leader Mohammad Zubair said on Thursday that the party workers wanted to see Nawaz Sharif as the country’s premier for the fourth time.

Addressing a press conference in Karachi, Mr Zubair made it clear that the PML-N supremo’s return to the country was on October 21.

He said, “The journey of development in the country that ended in 2017 will be restarted again”.

“Nawaz Sharif, who was voted to power as the country’s premier three times, was ousted,” Mr Zubair rued.

He took a jibe at the Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP), saying, “The PPP-led government had a flop show in Sindh. We will contest against the PPP with great verve.”

Taking a swipe at the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chief, he said, “It was harmful for the country to see the PTI chief intact as the prime minister.”
