President Zardari to reach Lahore; likely to meet PM Shehbaz today

President Asif Ali Zardari is set to reach Lahore, and during his stay in the provincial capital, he is likely to meet Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Saturday (today).

According to national media citing sources, President Asif Ali Zardari will arrive in Lahore, where he is scheduled to hold important meetings during his two-day stay.

Media sources state that Asif Ali Zardari will also meet Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, along with various political leaders and other important personalities, during his visit.

A report claims that President Asif Ali Zardari will visit Lahore to meet PM Shehbaz Sharif and discuss the PPP’s challenges in Punjab. He will also attend a derby race as a special guest.

Analysts state that after the announcement of President Asif Ali Zardari’s visit, Lahore has once again become the political capital of the country, as PML-N is leading Punjab at a faster pace than Sindh.

What are the challenges?

The People’s Party is facing no significant challenges in Punjab, except for the fact that PML-N is giving a tough time to CM Sindh, Murad Ali Shah. Maryam Nawaz has introduced numerous development projects during her first-ever tenure, while the PPP’s performance remains questionable even after several years.
