LAHORE: Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) President Nawaz Sharif on Sunday instructed Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif to address the concerns raised by Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam-Fazl (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman regarding the madrassa registration bill.
The brothers convened at their Jati Umrah residence, where they discussed the country’s political landscape. During the meeting, PM Shehbaz assured Nawaz that Maulana Fazlur Rehman would be taken into confidence on the matter.
Additionally, PM Shehbaz briefed the PML-N chief on his recent visit to Saudi Arabia, presenting a comprehensive report on the trip to the party head.
Sources said Nawaz congratulated his brother on ‘improvements’ in the country’s economic situation, particularly for setting a new record in the stock exchange. The PM informed the elder Sharif about progress in foreign investment in the context of Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC).
They also deliberated on the political and economic landscape, including the events of November 26 and jailed former prime minister Imran Khan’s potential call for civil disobedience. The prime minister also briefed Nawaz about the interest shown by Saudi Arabia and other countries in investing in Pakistan.
Both leaders paid tribute to the martyrs of the Pakistan armed forces and other law-enforcement agencies.
