LAHORE: Shehbaz Sharif has asked Asif Ali Zardari to refrain from criticising the former prime minister Nawaz Sharif in the manner he did during his stay in Lahore last week.
“Zardari Sahib’s statement about Mian Nawaz Sharif is unfortunate. Zardari sb knows the conditions in which MNS had to go abroad. We should refrain from such remarks & work for the greater good of the country,” reads a tweet sent out by the leader of the opposition in the National Assembly Shehbaz on Thursday.
Zardari Sahib’s statement about Mian Nawaz Sharif is unfortunate. Mian Sahib’s unwavering commitment to Pakistan has always been unquestionable. Zardari sb. knows the conditions in which MNS had to go abroad. We should refrain from such remarks & work for greater good of country.

The Pakistan Peoples Party has already made it clear that despite cooperation in the national assembly as opposition party member, the PPP won’t treat the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) as a friend.
Zardari had lashed out at the PML-N leadership, Nawaz in particular, stating that he did not want to die on the homeland and the party could not do anything for Pakistan.
