Pakistan Muslim League-N leader Mian Nawaz Sharif has accorded a formal approval for the launch of Nawaz League in Azad Jammu and Kashmir.
He granted this approval at a meeting with the newly resigned Kashmir's Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider at Raiwand Farm on Tuesday.
PML-N senior leader Senators Mohammad Zafar ul Haq and Senator Pervez Rashid were also present during the meeting
Haider apprised the PML-N chief of no-trust motion tabled by opposition parties led by Muslim Conference chief Sardar Atiq.
Nawaz said he had already made up his mind to form N-league in Azad Kashmir. However, he deferred his decision due to reconciliation with Sardar Qayum and Sardar Atiq. He said PML-N is dead set against govt intervention in AJK political and administrative matters. He said it is our long term demand that the elected representatives over there should be given full authority to conduct political and administrative matters.
"It has now become essential to launch Nawaz League for the people of Kashmir and continuation of freedom movement," he said.
According to sources, Nawaz Sharif has also constituted a committee to organize the party in Kashmir. Senior leader Raja Zafar ul Haq will be the head of this committee.
Member Kashmir Council Sardar Farooq Sikandar has been appointed as Secretary General PML-N in AJK while they discussed the names of Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhary, Raja Farooq and Sardar Sikandar for the party President ship in AJK.
The three members committee would review and choose the party President in AJK among Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhary and Sardar Sikandar.
The committee would soon finalize the name of President and present the report to Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif.
