Sharif departs for Pakistan
ISLAMABAD: PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif departs for Pakistan via the Boeing 737-800 aircraft along with 152 companions, including Sharif’s associates, staff members, and party supporters.
Joining Nawaz on the flight are his personal physician, Dr. Adnan, Nasir Janjua, and Senator Irfan Siddiqui.
Reports also suggest that 24 journalists and news anchors are among the passengers on this flight.
Nawaz is returning via a Fly Dubai flight, FZ-4525, departing from Dubai at 9:25 a.m. on Saturday.
The flight is scheduled to touch down at Islamabad International Airport around 12:30 p.m., having already received the necessary clearance to land. Subsequently, it will take off for Lahore at 2:30 p.m.
Nawaz Sharif’s much-anticipated return is set to occur in Islamabad rather than Lahore, where preparations for a rally are underway.
Nawaz Sharif reached Dubai on Thursday, where he stayed at the residence of Ali Dar, the son-in-law of Nawaz and son of former Finance Minister Ishaq Dar.
The PML-N leader is making his return to Pakistan after nearly four years in exile and has already been granted protective bail by the Islamabad High Court.
PMLN launches new anthem of the party ahead of the return of Nawaz Sharif
Meanwhile, PML-N has released its new anthem ahead of Nawaz Sharif’s return to Pakistan. PML-N chief organizer Maryam Nawaz shared the party’s new anthem on the X-platform today.
The anthem is part of the PML-N’s top trend on the X-platform “I will go to Minar-e-Pakistan” to welcome Nawaz Sharif.
Maryam Nawaz said, “This song perfectly represents the euphoric feelings of every Pakistani on the return of Nawaz Sharif. The anticipation, the excitement, the optimism, it is all palpable.”
Furthermore, the clash between the PML-N and PTI supporters today reached its climax a day ahead of the landing of Nawaz Sharif in Islamabad on Saturday (Oct 21).
Both, the PML-N and PTI activists and supporters’ posts are top trending on the X-platform (earlier Twitter) on Friday.
PML-N’s group tweet “I will go to Minar-e-Pakistan” is one of the two top trends on X network today.
Meanwhile, PTI’s slogan “Justice is Dead” also appears on the top of this platform.
The activists and supporters of both arch-rival political parties are freely targeting the leaders of each other with sarcastic and abusive tones.
On Thursday, the Islamabad High Court gave a protective bail to Nawaz Sharif till Oct 24 in NAB references regarding the Al-Azizia and Avenfield cases.
