Published November 10, 2002

ISLAMABAD, Nov 9: The Pakistan Muslim League (N) demanded of the government on Thursday early summoning of the National Assembly’s inaugural session.

The demand was made by the general secretary of the Punjab PML-N and MNA-elect, Khwaja Saad Rafiq, at a press conference.

Present on the occasion were also the secretary-general of the Alliance for Restoration of Democracy (ARD), Zafar Iqbal Jhagra, MNAs-elect Rana Mahmoodul Hassan and Abid Sher Ali and MPA-elect Rana Sanaullah.

Khwaja said delay in summoning of the NA session would be harmful for democracy.—APP
