Islamabad: The scheduled meeting between Prime Minister's nominee Shahbaz Sharif and opposition leader Raja Riaz for consultations on the PM's nomination has been postponed once again.

According to sources, due to Raja Riaz's busy schedule, he will not be able to meet the Prime Minister today.

Similarly, the meeting was also canceled yesterday due to his prior engagements.

The consultation meeting between Prime Minister's nominee Shahbaz Sharif and opposition leader Raja Riaz was supposed to take place today.

Three names were proposed from both sides, and one name will be announced after the consultation.
