The political pressure built up by former Prime Minister Imran Khan and the success of his narrative of ‘foreign conspiracy’ in the public coupled with the economic challenges has become a serious headache for the Pakistan Muslim League – Nawaz (PML-N), the main stakeholder in the current coalition government.
According to sources close to the top leadership of PML-N, the party’s supreme leader Nawaz Sharif sees immediate general elections as the only solution to come out of this quagmire while Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif who is also the President of PML-N thinks otherwise.
