Former premier is scheduled to leave for Lahore on August 9 in form of a rally as was recommended by senior members of the party. Earlier, Nawaz Sharif arrived in Islamabad from his Murree residence last week where he had moved to following his disqualification. Reportedly, the former premier convened meetings with different representatives of the party as well during which he said that he decided to travel to Lahore via GT Road out of workers insistence.

He further said that the political party in no way is in favour of clash with institutions. The de-seated premier said that PML-N was targeted in the name of accountability. No premier in the past was subjected to the kind of actions he has endured for democracy, Nawaz claimed. Information minister Marriyum Aurangzeb and a delegation of traders also convened meetings with the former premier in Punjab House.
