ARD may delay its meeting

LAHORE, May 13: An ARD meeting, scheduled for May 17 in Islamabad, is likely to be delayed for a few days because of the inability of the government-opposition committee on the LFO to complete its report by then.

Alliance chief Nawabzada Nasrullah Khan said here on Tuesday that the opposition had no flexibility in its stand on the controversial package of constitutional amendments.

Meanwhile, ARD president and PPP leaders Jehangir Badr, Syed Yousaf Reza Gilani, Chaudhry Ahmed Mukhtar and Munir Ahmed Khan participated in a dinner hosted by their party colleague Malik Hafeezur Rehman.
