RAIWIND: Former Chief Minister Punjab Mian Shahbaz Sharif has said that the formula of forming a unity government in Punjab is not acceptable to his party, but he will welcome Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain, the proposer of the formula, if he came to meet with PML-N leadership.
Talking to media persons after holding talks with constitution and law experts gathered at his Raiwind residence to discuss Supreme Court’s verdict against Sharifs, Shahbaz said that he and Nawaz Sharif held negotiations with the experts on filing a review petition against disqualification verdict by SC.
