LAHORE: PML-N Punjab President Rana Sanaullah has accused PPP senior leader Aitzaz Ahsan of creating rift among opposition parties.

Talking to reporters on Thursday, Sana said: “Aitzaz is talking against PML-N and creating differences among the opposition parties. He is not well and he should better pay attention to his health.”

He said the man, who once commanded respect, was talking strange things.

“Mr Ahsan should not have gone against the cause of the opposition,” he said.

Earlier, Aitzaz had reportedly urged PPP Chairman Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari to take caution while dealing with the N-League and do politics independently instead of entering into any alliance in Punjab.

The comment was made in the backdrop of the reported reluctance of PML-N President Shahbaz Sharif to attend the proposed multi-party conference.

However, Bilawal later said the MPC would be held once Shahbaz got well.

Meanwhile, PML-N Secretary Information Marriyum Aurangzeb has demanded dissolution of the National Accountability Bureau and resignation of its chairman.

In a statement, Marriyum said after the latest decision of the Supreme Court the existence of NAB was nothing more than a failure and stubbornness to carry on with a failed institution.
