PML-N President Shehbaz Sharif said his party has a strength of 104 members in the National Assembly.

Addressing the PML-N parliamentary meeting alongside brother Nawaz, the younger Sharif said all the MNAs-elect from his party contested the February 8 general election on their own. He also thanked the independents who recently joined the PML-N.

Shehbaz recalled the difficulties faced by the party in the past few years. He highlighted the PML-N’s achievements during Nawaz’s tenure citing the multiple motorway projects and the end to loadshedding in the country.
