Nawaz Sharif to become PM fro third time today.

Islamabad, June 5 – Mian Nawaz Sharif is all set to become prime minister for a record third time on Wednesday.

 

The Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz chief will assume the charge of the prime minister after a gap of over 13 long years. Nawaz Sharif will become the first person to assume the office for a third time, which has only become possible after the removal of a ban restricting a candidate from holding public office for a maximium of two terms.

 

The Jamiat Ulema-i-Islam-Fazl, the Muttahida Qaumi Movment and Aftab Khan Sherpao will support Mr Sharif for the election of prime minister while the Pakistan People’s Party (PPP) and the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf have decided not to give an unopposed victory to the PML-N.

 

PPP’s Makhdoom Amin and PTI’s Javed Hashmi will be competing against Mian Nawaz Sharif in the election to be held during the National Assembly session today.
