Elections 2024: Nawaz Sharif to visit Quetta next week

LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League Nawaz (PML-N) supremo Nawaz Sharif is expected to visit Balochistan on November 13, ARY News reported on Wednesday quoting sources.

This would be Nawaz Sharif’s first visit within the country since his return to Pakistan in October, ending his four years of self-imposed exile.

On his visit to Balochistan, Nawaz Sharif is expected to meet key political personalities. The key political figures from the province will join the PML-N, say sources,

Nawaz Sharif will also hold a meeting with the new party organisation in Balochistan.

On Tuesday, in a surprising turn of events, PML-N and MQM-Pakistan announced to contest the 2024 general elections jointly.

The announcement was made by MQM-P and PML-N leaders in a joint press conference following a delegation-level meeting with former premiers Nawaz Sharif and Shehbaz Sharif in Lahore.

MQM delegation comprising Dr Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui, Farooq Sattar and Mustafa Kamal met PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif and his brother Shehbaz at the party’s Central Secretariat in Lahore.

In a joint statement issued after the meeting, the parties said they had agreed to adopt a joint strategy to put an end to the public’s woes.

“Both the parties agreed to adopt a joint strategy to bring the people of Pakistan out of the current problems and to put Pakistan back on the path of development. The two parties also decided to set up a six-member committee to prepare a comprehensive charter to address the problems of Sindh province, especially its urban areas. The committee will present the final proposals for cooperation between the two parties to the leadership within 10 days,” a PML-N statement issued after the meeting stated.
