LAHORE, June 1: Chief Minister Shahbaz Sharif called on Governor Latif Khosa at the Governor’s House on Friday.

The chief minister had gone there to attend the oath-taking ceremony of Lahore High Court Chief Justice Umar Ata Bandial. He was accompanied by Rana Iqbal, Rana Sanaullah, Pervaiz Rashid and Zulfiqar Khosa.

Shahbaz appeared to be tense when Khosa tried to hug him, and during the meeting he hardly passed a smile.

According to a handout issued by the Governor’s House, the two leaders met in a ‘pleasant’ environment and agreed to meet in future for a positive change in political environment.

The governor also congratulated the chief minister on the establishment of IT University.
