Two days ago, Senior PML-N leader Ahsan Iqbal held a PDM meeting. Former premier Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, JUI-F leader Abdul Ghafoor Haideri, Hafiz Hamdullah, Hamidullah, Sikandar Sherpao, and other officials attended the meeting.
During the meeting, the leaders decided to hold a public gathering in Karachi on August 29. In that gathering, PDM will discuss the political, internal, and economic situation of the country with the public.
“The three-year performance of the government, its corruption and incompetence will be brought to the notice of the nation, all the facts will be collected and a white paper will be issued on the performance of the government,” Khaqan Abbasi said.
