PM Shehbaz, President Zardari discuss constitutional amendments

Islamabad: Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif met with President Asif Ali Zardari at the President House on Thursday to discuss proposed constitutional amendments and the prevailing political situation.

The meeting comes as the Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) and Pakistan Peoples Party (PPP) step back from their earlier proposal to establish constitutional courts.

The two leaders earlier met at Jati Umra in Lahore where PML-N supremo Nawaz Sharif, Maulana Fazlur Rehman and Bilawal Bhutto Zardari were also present to discuss the constitutional package.

Meanwhile, during a special parliamentary committee meeting, chaired by Khursheed Shah, discussions were held on the 26th constitutional amendment draft.
