In this regard, PML-Q President Chaudhry Shujaat Hussain has convened a meeting of his party leaders in Islamabad on Monday (today) to discuss the issue. Talking to Business Recorder, Senator Zahid Khan said that the delegation is hopeful in yielding a positive result after meeting Chaudhry Shujaat.
He, however, said that there is no secret contact between PML-N and ANP over the renaming of the province, adding that it is up to the PML-N leadership to invite his party leaders to create a consensus relating the matter.
