Addressing the PMLN workers’ convention, Nawaz Sharif recalled his disqualification and removal from party leadership, attributing it to personal vendettas by certain individuals. He criticized retired judges involved in the Panama case, holding them responsible for hindering Pakistan’s progress. “Pakistan could have become the Asian Tiger today if it wasn’t for their selfish motives,” Nawaz remarked, blaming the judicial decisions for damaging the nation’s economic potential.

Clashes Between PTI and PMLN Supporters

The event saw tensions flare outside the venue, as supporters of PTI and PMLN clashed near the Avenfield flats. The scuffle, lasting about 20 minutes, was eventually brought under control by police intervention.
