ISLAMABAD, May 18: A meeting of the Central Working Committee (CWC) of the Pakistan Muslim League-N will be held here on Wednesday (today) to finalize a plan to lodge protest against the arrest of its leaders and activists
and deportation of its president Shahbaz Sharif.
Sources in the party told Dawn that the party leadership was considering the Wednesday's meeting very important as it would receive proposals from the members as to how it could get "political benefits" out of the May 11 events, which they believed, had turned the public opinion against the government.
They said a final decision whether the party should raise the issue of Shahbaz Sharif in the National Assembly or not would also be taken up in the meeting, which would be presided over by PML-N chairman Raja Zafarul Haq.
The sources said there was a group in the party which desired from their leadership to give a call for launching an agitation throughout the country against the deportation of their president. The PML-N members, they said, believed that there was no use of raising the issue in the National Assembly as it had no authority.
