    Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) leadership on Monday said that the name of Leader of the Opposition Shehbaz Sharif for the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman was not acceptable saying the PML-N president is booked in NAB cases.

    A parliamentary party meeting presided over by Prime Minister Imran Khan decided to ask the opposition for another name instead of Shehbaz Sharif.

    Sources said that Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi will ask the opposition in this regard.

    Sources privy to the PTI said that the meeting decided that the PML-N president’s name for the Public Accounts Committee (PAC) chairman was not acceptable as the former Punjab CM is booked in NAB cases.

    The meeting further directed the assembly members to accelerate mass contact campaign.

    On the occasion, PM Imran Khan also briefed the parliamentary leaders about recent agreements with Saudi Arabia, UAE and China.
