Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif on Friday blamed the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) for a red-hot inflation.

The former prime minister presided over the key party meeting in London. Prominent among those who attended the meeting were PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif, Muhammad Zubair, Atta Tarar, Malik Ahmad Khan, and Abid Sher Ali, among others.

It was recalled in the meeting that Nawaz Sharif will return to the country on October 21.

In line with the Supreme Court verdict regarding the National Accountability Bureau (NAB) amendments, the PML-N bigwigs had a discussion.

Expressing his thoughts on the occasion, Nawaz said, "For the sake of one person, the national interests were put at stake."

He praised former prime minister Shehbaz Sharif, saying, "Shehbaz Sharif had saved the country from default, for which he should be lauded."
