LAHORE: The chief of PML-Q Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif has set 2-week deadline for government to relapse 17 amendment in the constitution of Pakistan.

This he asserted at Allama Iqbal Airport before flying to Saudi Arabia to perform Umrah.

We reckon the newly elected parliament a sovereign one and its sovereignty should be reflected through its decisions, he said adding that all the major decisions are being made by a sole political party instead of reaching consensus of all parties’ representatives in parliament.

Nawaz Sharif would return home on October 2.
