Gilani, Nawaz exchanges views on national issues

ISLAMABAD, April 23 (APP) - Prime Minister Syed Yusuf Raza Gilani Friday night telephoned Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz (PML-N) Chief Mian Nawaz Sharif and exchanged views on national issues. The Prime Minister asked Mian Nawaz Sharif to suggest a name from his party who could join the commission being formed for implementation of constitutional amendments.
The benefits of enactment of the 18th amendment, he said could only reach the people after effective implementation of the amendments in the constitution.
He said that the historic amendments are an outcome of the Charter of Democracy signed by Shaheed Mohtarma Benazir Bhutto and Mian Nawaz Sharif.
In this regard, the Prime Minster also appreciated the support and active contribution of PML-N and other political parties in the Parliament.
Mian Nawaz Sharif said that the enactment of 18th amendments is a victory of the democratic forces and the whole nation deserves to be complimented on this landmark achievement.
About suggesting a name for the implementation commission to be formed, Nawaz Sharif said that very soon he would consult senior members of his party, particularly Ishaq Dar and suggest the name of the representative.
The Prime Minister took Mian Nawaz Sharif into confidence on his forthcoming visit to Bhutan to attend the SAARC Conference and also on Pakistan-EU Summit likely to be held in June.
He consulted him on matters of interest to Pakistan on both the occasions.
Nawaz Sharif appreciated the initiative of the Prime Minister to help resolve the energy crises and said that Mian Shahbaz Sharif has briefed him in detail about the deliberations and outcome of the Energy Conference.
The Prime Minister thanked him for the support and mentioned that the success of the Energy Conference was possible because of collective efforts and collective wisdom of the leadership of all the political parties.
It is now incumbent upon the federal and the provincial governments to work with the same spirit to implement the decisions of the Energy Conference so that the people can get relief from energy shortage, the Prime Minister said.
