During a telephonic conversation on Saturday, Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Vice President Maryam Nawaz invited Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari to her residence in Jati Umra.
According to PML-N spokesperson, Marriyum Aurangzeb, Bilawal has “accepted the invitation and he will arrive at Raiwind tomorrow afternoon”.
Reportedly, the meeting which is expected to take place on Sunday at 1:30 pm, will be attended by close aides from both political parties.
Media reports said that the two leaders will discuss the post-budget political environment in addition to the arrest of their respective fathers – Nawaz Sharif and Asif Zardari – in corruption references.
On May 19, the two political scions met at an Iftar dinner in Islamabad – hosted by Bilawal for opposition parties. While addressing a joint presser with PML-N leaders, including Vice President Maryam Nawaz and former premier Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, and Jamiat Ulema-e-Islam (JUI-F) chief Maulana Fazlur Rehman post-dinner, Bilawal hinted at the revival of the Charter of Democracy (CoD), saying that “the agreement has not ended and the new generation will keep on adding to it”.
He had further said that the opposition decided to join hands to find solutions to the issues the country is facing. He also announced that all opposition parties will launch a protest inside and outside the parliament after Eid.
Abbasi had said that all parties agreed that the government has failed in running the affairs of the country. He added that after Eid, an All Parties Conference (APC) would be held where a joint strategy would be formulated.
