LAHORE (Dunya News) – Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif and Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) leader Khawaja Salman Rafique on Friday exchanged views on the country’s political situation.

Separately, PM Shehbaz said the Pakistan Democratic Movement (PDM) led government would transfer the government to the caretaker setup in August.

Addressing the nation, he said the government cleared the landmines placed by the previous government, adding that his government’s tenure was a journey from hopelessness to hope. “We extinguished the fire fueled by hatred,” he added.
