Nawaz — who has been in self-imposed exile in London since November 2019 owing to health reasons — was disqualified for life in 2017 by the Supreme Court for not declaring a receivable salary.
He was also serving a jail term before being sent to London for the treatment.
During the meeting, PML-N leaders also discussed the economic situation of the country and also deliberated upon the party’s strategy for the upcoming elections.
Shehbaz Sharif said Nawaz would be given a historic welcome upon his return to the country. He said Nawaz will return to the country after spending three years and 11 months in London.
