“We will congratulate you. PML-N has no desire to decorate this crown of thorns on its head,” the senior PML-N leader further said in the social media post/

According to the sources, in the PML-N meeting chaired by its supremo Nawaz Sharif, the participants had suggested to the former prime minister that we should not take a federal government.

The party leaders suggested that PML-N can easily form a government in Punjab with independent members so we should focus only on Punjab.
