Talk to media persons, he asserted that she was a political worker who played vital role in politics. “Taking part in elections is a part of politics. In the last elections, the party had nominated her from one constituency, however due to a judgement of the Supreme Court, she couldn’t participate in the election process,” he said. He added that she would definitely take part in elections.

Meanwhile, PML-N vice president Maryam Nawaz has criticised the agreement between the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf government and International Monetary Fund (IMF).

“IMF or no IMF – the incompetent rulers were not sure. Finally when it does come, it’s a complete sell-out of our sovereignty and rightly REJECTED by stock market. After just 9 months, country is on the brink of economic disaster,” Maryam tweeted on Monday.

The PML-N leader went on to say that within nine months the incompetent government had brought the country to a complete economic collapse. “The masses are suffering while rulers enjoy perks & privileges. All sectors of the economy stand at the verge of disaster. The experiment has miserably failed.” On Monday Pakistan and the IMF finalised an agreement on a package worth $6 billion over a period of three years. In its press release, the IMF said it aims to support the federal government’s structural reform agenda during the next three years.
