LAHORE, June 25: The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) has finalised arrangements to observe a ‘black day’ on Friday (tomorrow) against the verdict of the Lahore High Court (LHC) barring Nawaz Sharif from contesting by-election for NA-123.

The party plans a protest outside Masjid-i-Shuhada besides protest camps outside the Punjab Assembly and outside the LHC building.
