LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has cancelled its anthem launch event prepared for the return of party supremo Nawaz Sharif to show solidarity with Palestinian people.

PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif was scheduled to launch the new party anthem today.
غزہ میں ہسپتال پر اسرائیلی وحشیانہ بمباری سے 500 سے زائد بے گناہ فلسطینیوں کی شہادت اور اپنے فلسطینی بہن بھائیوں سے یکجہتی کے لیے ہم نے آج ہونے والی پاکستان مسلم لیگ ن کے نئے ترانے کے اجراء کی تقریب کو منسوخ کر دیا ہے۔
